Alice Carr

Alice Carr (b.1990) is an artist living and working on the British canals. She studied mediaeval Celtic languages and Cambridge University, and is now studying with the Royal Drawing School. Her practice explores the themes of rural loneliness and nature, and the work she produces is rooted in the lines between field and city, human and animal. Using thick layers, expressive mark making and various mediums she allows stories to emerge from within images, sometimes unsettling, sometimes humorous. Alice’s work sits between observation and imagination, with elements of traditional and personal folklores creeping in and juxtaposed with mundane realities.
