Aliça Bryson-Haynes
Artist
I create site-specific installations that are an expanded form of painting. Materials such as paint, glitter, gold leaf, fruit, lentils, balloons and blankets are used to construct the work, which is situated both within the gallery context and the public domain. The qualities of these materials are altered through their unexpected placement, modification and repetition to elicit a sense of wonder and surprise.
