Amy Leach: I am intrigued by your use of organic materials, from the geode and different polished marbles to the more commonplace sand and smaller mineral forms. Their juxtaposition against the other images, surfaces and structures within the show creates a rich interplay, blurring the line between the found, made and naturally occurring. I wondered if you could speak more about what draws you to these types of materials and the role they play in your work? Gabriele Beveridge: I don't necessarily think of things as found vs made, natural vs synthetic. I see the world of things that we exist within more as different states of being. I've always thought of materials in this way, rather than an 80's talk on found vs made. Sometimes I discover a material that gives an expression to one of these states and maybe it will find its way into a finished work. Our way of looking today places a kind of 'time signature' upon everything - there's no neutral - so I like to explore that. So in relation to the specifically "natural" or "organic" material such as the marble, I'm interested in how the feeling that's in that material - of geological time and its purely physical hardness - relates to the frailty of the photograph and the effects of just a few decades that are already discoloring the paper. When I'm working on something that's how I'm making connections, and I'm also looking for how these material differences come together
