PAIGE BRADLEY (b. 1974, American)

Beginning with pencil and paper, Paige Bradley took her art seriously at the age of nine. Born in California in 1974, she was educated at Pennsylvania Academy of Art and Pepperdine University in Malibu, California and Florence, Italy. As an artist, a businesswoman and a happily married mother of two, life is busy and abundant.

 

As one of the leading figurative sculptors of our generation, Paige explores the human body as the vehicle to communicate today’s struggles, isolations, limitations and brokenness. Her work captures the light of the spirit and the power of the body while capturing a beautiful mortality that is both fragile and fierce. Listed several times as having created the world’s most intriguing and creative works of art, people are profoundly connect to the imagery of Paige’s sculptures.

 

Paige’s studio is now located in Stamford, Connecticut. Over the last twenty years she has held sculpture studios in London, California, and New York. She has worked with the same foundry since she was 17, where she often does her own patinas and detail work. Paige’s collectors know her as prolific and as a perfectionist, who creates work that speaks to today’s sensibilities and will also be enjoyed for generations to come.
