Siân Newlove-Drew

Siân Newlove-Drew (born 1998), is a London based artist, working across sculpture, installation, and writing. Exploring objects as live containers of emotion and materiality, facilitatory to glowing sites of processing, power, and personal discovery, her practice is led by feelings of specialness, femininity, involvement, and overwhelm and the making is inherently enjoyable and alive. She is interested in the structure of feeling, between what is succinct and arranged and what is mess, liquescent and energised.
‍

Often using sculptural encountered objects- selected because they are commanding, active and have a charge in an encounter, the artist re-addresses, and re-stages them to inhabit a space with an internal and external presence. The context of her work shifts, taken from experiences, that are galvanised by synchronistic threads of information, and linkages that ignite personal engagement, which is worlding and externalises the internal.
