Alison Lochhead
Alison Lochhead is a sculptor whose work reflects upon the fragmentation of memory and witness of injustices and the ongoing impact of war. Alison works with heat and materials from the earth; iron, clay, rocks, oxides. From molten iron poured from the cupola and materials put in the kiln; alchemy takes place as the various materials are drawn together or reject each other, they are transformed. A story is told.
Alison also works with drawings, wall pieces and collograph prints which complement the 3D work.
Memories are fragile and transitory; as is much of Alison’s work.
