    Alice Lang’s practice explores the possibilities for sculpture to complicate the
    relationships between concepts of the decorative  and the grotesque,
    particularly their association with depictions of femininity. Her work
    creates a tension between the familiarand the unknown, and the
    feminine and the grotesque. There is a tumorous tactility between the newly
    formed object and familiarity of the materials from which it is made. It
    is this tension between form and formlessness, and allure and repulsion that is
    central to her practice.
