Sculpture talk: Alice Channer

In December 2018, Alice Channer spoke at Leeds Art Gallery about her recent projects involving extraordinary objects, from PVC dipped aluminium fingers to metallicized crab shells.

Listen to her talk below:

Alice Channer’s work explores and distorts materials. She creates surfaces that are pleated, curved, stretched, expanded and contracted to explore sculptural concerns of volume, form, dimension and weight.

Channer has exhibited widely nationally and internationally over the last decade, including at Museum Morsbroich, Germany, Whitechapel Gallery, Kettles Yard, Cambridge, La Panacée, Montpellier, France (2018), Aspen Art Museum, Colorado, USA and Kunsthaus Hamburg, Germany (2017), Museum Kurhaus Kleve, Germany, Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester (2016).

This series of talks were programmed in partnership with Leeds Beckett University, Leeds Art Gallery and Yorkshire Sculpture International.
