Award winning Paper artist Zoe Bradley began sculpting in paper in 2005, having worked in non conventional materials for the designer Alexander McQueen, where Bradley was tasked with creating some of the designers most iconic show pieces in wood. Bradley's love of flowers and the exaggerated form set her on a journey of creating large scale installation work including large chandeliers, six foot high couture gowns and paper collage work on art canvas.
Zoe Bradley is a member of Homo Faber, a cultural movement centred on creative artisans.
Her floral paper sculptures have been commissioned by luxury brands including Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Tiffany & Co and Dior. Bradley has undertaken a number of private commissions.
Her background in fashion design gives her an intuitive sense of exaggerated forms from her large scale pieces to smaller works. Zoe has an affinity with the natural world and draws inspiration from her own flower cutting garden informing her sculptural works and art canvases.
Her work has featured in American & Chinese Elle, British Vogue, British Harpers Bazaar, Wallpaper, House & Garden and Italian Casa Vogue. In addition her works have been published in numerous art books & magazines on paper sculpture.
