Alice Anderson, all that glitters is not gold

As a child other kids would point at Alice Anderson’s red hair. As an artist her red hair has proved to be more of an inspiration than a taunt. She works with beautiful copper wire, wrapping or mummifying everyday objects creating their jewel-like appearance. Over 100 everyday objects, including a copper covered telephone, guitar and staircase can be seen at The Wellcome Collection from the 22 July until 18 October 2015.
