Alison Lambert Human Explorations: Heads and Myths

About

Human Explorations is a collection of large charcoal drawings and monotypes exploring human emotions and mythological themes produced over the past five years by one of Britain’s foremost figurative artists.

Alison Lambert’s work is characterised by physicality and spontaneity. Lambert’s drawings use a collage technique, allowing her to ‘find’ the image she is searching for by layering and tearing her paper and re- drawing areas that don’t feel right. For Lambert, the process is long and arduous yet exciting as it features an element of chance and accident, requiring an intuitive dialogue with the works as they progress.
