Biography
Alice Lang’s work unfolds from various points of mixed-media and does so by alternating disciplines that encompass painting, drawing, and craft-form objects. Lang’s work underlie key surfacing themes within her practice that consider the emotive aspects of materiality, the historical & current roles of feminism, and in recent works the tension of identity constructs and fragmentation between our virtual and physical selves. While her art-objects take into account material expression between form and formlessness, allure and repulsion, the known and the unknown. Her signature crafted forms are able to tease the relationship between the decorative and the grotesque, previously she has experimented using techniques such as macramé and other fibre crafts throughout her oeuvre. Lang seemingly represents an alternate contemporary populist range of craft materials such as puff paints, and bright fluorescent thread. She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts Honours (Visual Arts) First Class from Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, QLD, Australia (2004).
