"...When one of the objects around me is likely to become obsolete or is lost in the stream of our lives, I 'memorise' it with thread before it happens..."
Anglo-French artist Alice Anderson's practice is an exploration of memory in the context of the digital world via COR-TEN (weathering steel) and thread sculptures and performances. Anderson transforms virtual data into tactile forms to recreate a new physical relationship with objects and spaces through ritual performances.
Anderson's performances and sculptures have been presented at DenFrie Centre of Contemporary Art, Denmark (2018); La Patinoire Royale, Brussels (2018); Centre Pompidou, Paris (2017); Saatchi Gallery (2016); Royal Academy of Arts (2016); Espace Culturel Louis (2014); 55th International Art Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia (2013); Whitechapel Gallery, London (2012) and Freud Museum, London (2011).
