Alice Simpson's Artist Portfolio
Welcome to Alice Simpson's Portfolio. Browse Simpson's body of work: As the antithesis to a career spent catering to fashion
and cosmetic clientele, Simpson’ recent works, both
books and clay, lead her to pursue themes such as
ABUNDANT BEAUTY, a 2006 series of clay portraits
inspired by Circus Fat Lady memorabilia. She searches
for something darker, less conventional --
even outrageous, by questioning ideas of
acceptable beauty.
Occasionally, words like contralto, castrati, belle
canto, and diva inspire work. Simpson is listening
to and interpreting sound and expression with a
series inspired by operatic voice and character.
