Picture
Brigid Vidler was born in Sydney, Australia. She works in London and Sydney.

STATEMENT


Vidler's work explores how humans have collectively re-shaped the planet and ushered in a new geological age, the Anthropocene. She is interested in ideas of value and time, which is reflected through the choice of material and method.  Her small scale wood carvings integrate everyday objects such as cans, old textiles and household plastics, to reflect upon how production, consumption and disposal of objects impacts the planet and its inhabitants.
