Alison Wilding

(b. 1948)
Alison Wilding is one of Britain’s most celebrated contemporary sculptors, known for her innovative use of materials and forms that shift between the delicate and the monumental. Working across a variety of media — from wood, stone, and metal to resin and textiles — Wilding creates works that invite both physical and emotional engagement. Her career has been marked by major exhibitions worldwide, including the Serpentine Gallery in London, MoMA in New York, and a landmark 1991 retrospective at Tate Liverpool. Whether abstract or figurative in suggestion, her sculptures are rich in texture, balance, and tension, offering viewers layered readings that change with perspective.
