Discipline:

Fine Art

Location:

Leeds

ABOUT:

Amelia Frances Wood explores creating in-between spaces that serve as a portal to other worlds unlike the ones we can see and touch. These worlds aim to reflect upon the liminal states of being human, what it means to exist in transition, where reality dissolves and where the physical self fades and something more primal, fluid, or otherworldly takes over. The artist chooses to work with materials that hold a weighted memory such as clay, wood, fabric, earthly material and found objects to create anthropomorphic sculptures. These sculptures reference the body, earth, ritual, and symbolic objects. Centering ideas around the body as a vessel, delving into the holistic interplay between the external form and the internal spaces.

SUPPORT WORKING CLASS CREATIVES (1).png

'Working Class Creatives' responds to a need which is too often overlooked in the arts; that of the barriers facing working-class artists from getting on in our sector. They are instrumental in initiating much-needed change that will see the art world become more inclusive and reflect the society it purports to serve. I often search their database in my research, it is a vital resource for any arts professional working in culture today. That they have got this far on so little financial resource is remarkable and I am excited to see what they will achieve with further support.” Beth Hughes, Curator, Arts Council Collection.
