Ellie Davies was born in London in 1990. She is currently studying on the BA (Hons) Art Practice course at Goldsmiths, University of London. She completed the Leeds College of Art Foundation programme in 2009.
She recently exhibited in Fourth Takeaway New Cross, various takeaway outlets, New Cross, London, 2011. She was also recently selected to take part in the Liam Gillick master class in London in February 2011.
Ellie Davies is drawn to compulsive and rhythmic processes and is seduced by material surfaces. From this emerges a dialogue between concepts of guilt, consumption, habit, ritual and attachment. Her artworks evolve gradually, accumulating over time. She is interested in the use of traditional craft skills and their relationship to fine art practice. In Interim she will show the video works Tunnocks Teacake and Golden Gate and the fibre work Pom Pom, a 6’ X 6’ pom pom. She is also interested in the displacement of work beyond the gallery space and will make an off site work for Interim.
