Her work explores the intersections of art, society, and the environment, balancing concept with materiality to create powerful site-responsive pieces. Guided by sustainability, Alice works with environmentally conscious materials — a focus deepened during her residency at the University of Bristol’s Earth Sciences Department, which culminated in her solo exhibition *What Does Climate Change Look Like?*. She has delivered major site-specific commissions in France, London, and Stoke-on-Trent, and created permanent sculptures for Trinity Arts Centre (Bristol) and Vittorio Veneto (Italy), marking the centenary of the First World War. Recently, her large-scale work featured in the Royal West of England Academy’s landmark exhibition *Earth: Digging Deep in British Art 1781–2022*. Collaboration is central to her practice. Alice has worked with the Royal Society of Sculptors, Chichester Cathedral, Superculture, and the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts & Sciences. She has been recognised with awards from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust and the Brian Mercer residency in Pietrasanta, Italy. Alongside exhibitions and commissions, Alice shares her expertise through workshops, lectures, and mentorship, contributing to projects such as The National Festival of Making. She also served as a trustee of the Royal Society of Sculptors, continuing to evolve as an artist and shape conversations in contemporary sculpture and environmental art.
