Olivia Bax is a London-based sculptor who grew up in Singapore and Scotland and studied at Byam Shaw and the Slade. She builds large, brightly coloured sculptures from found and made parts held on steel armatures with chicken wire, cardboard and paper pulp, mixing the colour into the material from the start. She worked as a studio assistant to Anthony Caro, won the Kenneth Armitage Young Sculptor Prize in 2016, and her work is in the Arts Council Collection and the Ingram Collection.
