Lead Sculpture

Page's work is inspired by her constant need to question object, function and process, making connections in the context of art theory alongside contemporary practice. Her work embraces tradition and re-presents elements within the contemporary, combining handmade and readymade, crafted and conceptual embracing the history and experience on which current art practice stands. The materials used are selected for each piece, and include a combination of traditional materials such as plaster, fabric and welded steel, and contemporary materials such as resin, plastic and readymade objects. The resulting, sometimes visually disparate works are encompassed by the connections made either physically, or conceptually. Her recent work embraces a contemporary response to the stimulus of the past, taking elements of tradition and the 20th century legacy of Duchamp and exploring their relevance to current practice.
