JACK WEST

Allison brings together natural and man-made materials, elements of craft and contemporary references in a practice that plays with ideas of repetition and reproduction while seeking out and celebrating chance moments, imperfections and individuality. 

“I like this idea of something really badly hidden in plain sight.”
