Alice Johnson
Overview
"I explore function but keep in mind a sense of play through sculpture, combining both in each piece. I hand build objects, covering undulating surfaces with patterns that are entirely unique. The purpose of my work is to make people smile." - Alice Johnson
Alice Johnson's work evokes a sense of joy, humour, and nostalgia. With a playful use of colour, shape and form, Alice's pieces hold a story for a cherished interior. There is a relationship between the differing use of materials and a translation of two to three dimensions. With a background in illustration, her playful drawings transform into life, becoming a reality. A transition from something liminal to something physical.
