About

My name is Samantha Alland and I am an Artist Designer: Maker studying at Cardiff School of Art and Design.

Through my artwork I strive to portray the idea of narrative, which generally takes me into the relms of fantasy and the surreal. I have always had a keen interest in curio, the supernatural and biology, especially that within the animal kingdom and the workings of the human brain. Much of my work is centered around how we as humans interact with the world around us, in our perception of it, and the clever tricks the brain produces to deal with everyday life.

I work in mixed media to create pieces of animal/object based sculpture, I also dabble in photography.

I am currently working on my dissertation project which explores how the theory of ‘Place Memory’ has been, and can be represented in art, this will include a small collection of my own work.
