Carol Peace Open Studio In November
After an incredible year of exhibitions Carol Peace’s work now comes home to her studio at Paintworks on the Bath Road. There is something special about an open studio, this is home, this is where the work moves on, where thoughts, not just finished works, are laid open to see. The studio will be open from November 6 – 16 Monday to Saturday 9.30am – 5.30pm Sunday 11am – 5pm
Carol Peace studied sculpture at Winchester School of Art and drawing at The Prince’s Drawing School. She has obtained numerous commissions both public and private and solo shows in London, Athens, Zurich, France, Spain and Holland. In 2007 she co-founded the Bristol Drawing School and was the artistic director for four years.
She is a sculptor who could not work without drawing. The process of drawing, that intuitive response, is in part what she aims for in her work. She sculpts in clay, which like charcoal is quick to make marks with, once finished it is cast into bronze when those fluid marks of the making are then fixed.
