Ellen Bell
Profile/CV
The nature of language, and in particular, its limitations as a method of expressing deep and difficult feelings, informs much of my work. I work directly with books, texts and paper ephemera to create drawings, installations and sculptures that post questions rather than deliver answers about how we communicate within our familial and intimate friendships.
My work is pared down, seemingly simple and yet, there is an intensity to it - at times more akin to writing than drawing.
