ARTIST IN RESIDENCE: Bradley Mendels

Bradley Mendels

Australia

Stay: August 11th to September 22nd

I am a practicing artist working in Sydney/Eora Australia. While I have been working primarily with clay for over ten years, my practice has grown to include timber, metal, plastic and fabric. During this time I have explored objects that skirt the boundary between fine art and design.

My practice has been primarily centred around smaller-scale objects which interact
with human senses through the sound from a wind chime or the light from a lamp, for
example. Playing with the way that objects or sculptures relate to the human senses, I
hope to venture into making larger works which address this topic in more impactful
ways, such as through the material and texture of a chair.
