Alice’s artworks are unflinching: capturing fear, fury and sorrow through the forms of fighting cocks and wild animals. Her current Inner Nature series responds to trauma, broken family structures and anxiety: transforming the chaos and uncertainty which echoes from youth into adulthood into the forms of hyper-alert, ultra-vibrant, creatures.
