Catalogue Essay
Sarah Lucas studied at the Working Men’s College, London College of Printing, and Goldsmith’s College, London. Over the course of three decades, she has become recognized as one of Britain’s most significant contemporary artists. Spanning sculpture, photography and installation, her work has consistently been characterized by irreverent humor and the use of everyday "readymade" objects such as furniture, food, tabloid newspapers, tights, toilets, cigarettes – often to conjure up corporeal fragments. The body, in its many guises, is Lucas’s prevailing subject. Lucas lives in Suffolk.
