AMELIA BREWERTON.

Amelia Brewerton is a multidisciplinary artist working largely with sculptural installation, hand-cut collage and public interventions. Brewerton’s practice often has a sense of upcycling and recontextualising the old, the previous, broken or forgotten. The focus is on giving more time and gratitude to stories which make up a proportion of our society. The process of recontextualising images is a way in which reconfiguration can open a space for change through audience interaction with the piece, works often take a cycle of their life in the street, either by being displayed or materials collected from various public domains. During the production of works, is a sense of therapeutic acknowledgment. Whether it be the storytelling of secrets from the past or working through abuse with a sense of vulnerability or physically being in a site-specific space. taking actions such as walking or collecting found items of interest. This beginning structuring to the works aids the general character of the pieces, as the interactions and conversations taking part in the public realm often inspire the works. The deepest intentions which Amelia hopes to address evoke a thought or reaction. Perhaps a different viewpoint or new way to process the world through her reconfigurations.
