Jane Strawbridge

 

On me head son! Jane Strawbridge's work is unique, beautifully realised and often surprising. We have previously had a series of characters with vegetables balanced on their heads, mystical and mythical looking creatures, and Jane's trademark long legged people. All Jane's work is made from papier mache, modelled around a wire armature and utilising the natural colours and qualities of the raw material. All surface colours and patterns are from paper, books and found materials. Often fragments of text add another subtext to the work. Jane rarely applies any colour, other than to accentuate lips and cheeks. Every exhibition has always sold out and I'm always asking for more so it's likely that if you visit you'll find some of Jane's wonderful creations waiting to meet you.
