“No Doubt”, Motivational Totem
(2020) Size - H:17cm, W:10cm, D:6cm
Originally from Stroud, Gloucestershire, she studied illustration at the University of Brighton where she graduated in 2017. Following this she went on to study Ceramics and Glass at the Royal College of Art starting in 2018.
The work is a catalyst for how Alice worked during the lockdown period. In a time of uncertainty and complete doubt in educational institutions and the government decisions, this totem acts as a motivator to the artist, and that despite the turmoil and uncertainty to have faith in oneself, and as a reminder that you can do it, on your own. The totem is made from domestic materials (Polyfilla, foil, paint and paper) to reflect what was at hand while staying at home over lockdown. This piece really is a sign of the times and proves that you can keep making even with the humblist of materials around you.
Moving forward, Alice would like to get back to making with clay and hopes to remain in London to finish off work that lockdown has held in its grasp.
