Alison Wilding
in The Guardian, interview by Chloë Ashby
17 September 2024
‘She’s one of the UK’s most revered sculptors. Yet Wilding is often overlooked. She talks about making art out of dead frogs, her feminist awakening and why ‘work comes from work’.
The 76-year-old British sculptor has a career-spanning exhibition opening at Alison Jacques gallery in London this week. It’s called Testing the Objects of Affection and over the rumble of trains she tells me it’s about her relationship with the works on display, which she shaped between 1975 and the present.’
