Jyll Bradley

 
British artist Jyll Bradley (born 1966 in Folkestone, UK, lives and works in London) attended Goldsmiths, University of London and the Slade School of Art. Bradley's installations, drawings, and light box works express a deeply personal engagement with identity and place. Light is an important protagonist in her practice, and she talks of using it to “bring things into the present”. Bradley's work increasingly engages with architecture and site. Through unlikely pairings of materials and traditions, she creates dynamic spaces which invite reflection upon dualities at the core of self and modern life. Bradley has long been interested in the human connection to plants and the structures that are built to capture light for green growth.
