In 2001 Arabella Brooke left a promising career in the City to follow her first love, sculpture. She attended The Art Academy in Southwark, where she mastered the fundamentals of figurative sculpture, and where she now teaches. Her work is born from sketchbooks which she carries around at all times, and in which she notes shapes and figures from the world around her. The final pieces are therefore mostly based on human figures which she uses to explore questions of identity and meaning in a modern and fast changing world.
Arabella Brooke exhibits in London, and her work is in many private collections.
