Alice Clough is a research-led artist working across ceramics, sculpture, film, photography, printmaking, sound, text and publication. With a background in both archaeology and anthropology, Alice locates her work across and between spaces and disciplines. Her research interests focus around exploring methodologies of the heart, time, wonder, and more-than-human relationships, drawing on theories of posthumanism and vibrant matter.
Alice is also a doctoral researcher with Bournemouth University and Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA). Her PhD, which is a Collaborative Doctoral Partnership funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council, looks at acts of interpretation within commercial archaeology settings. Titled ‘Telling Different Stories’, the project interrogates notions of linearity and singularity in interpreting the past.
