Lesley Foxcroft is an English Sculptor working mostly in MDF, Paper and Card. She studied at the Camberwell School of Fine Art from 1970-1974 and has gone on to be part of several solo and group exhibitions.[1]
Style
Many of her works consist of pieces of MDF, Paper and over such "everyday objects" attached to the walls of the gallary space with simple fixings such as Bolts and washers. Of her style she has said that “I like the idea that the uncomplicated has a purpose: that the material does not give a sculpture its value, it is the artist that does'."[2]
