Westgate Studios
Alice Bradshaw – Solo Exhibition
Alice Bradshaw works with a wide range of media and processes involving the manipulation of everyday objects and materials. Mass-produced, anonymous objects are often rendered dysfunctional caricatures of themselves, addressing concepts of purpose and futility. Alice creates or accentuates subtleties, blurring distinctions between the absurd and the mundane, with the notion that the environment the work exists in becomes integral to the work itself.
Alice has exhibited internationally and is the founding director of the Museum of Contemporary Rubbish and University of Incidental Knowledge, co-founding director of Fundada Artists’ Film Festival and Contents May Vary and co-curator for Holmfirth Arts Festival. She currently shares studio A6 at Westgate Studios with Bob Milner where they run a programme of exhibitions, events and zines.
Open Studios
There will also be a chance to see behind-the-scenes at Westgate Studios, meet the artists and purchase work that catches your eye as studio holders open their doors to Artwalkers.

About Us
Westgate Studios is in the centre of the city of Wakefield in West Yorkshire and is home to an eclectic mix of artists.

The Project Space within Westgate Studios, which is available for exhibitions is curated by Alice Bradshaw and Bob Milner.
