Bio

Alice is part time Exhibitions Assistant at the Coliseum, home of Ceredigion Museum Collections.

Alice Briggs is an artist from Aberystwyth. She studied Visual Performance at Dartington College of Arts and later went on to take an MA in Art Museum and Gallery Studies at Newcastle University. Museum collections and interpretation are currently strong themes in her practice, with a focus on objects and memory. In 2006 she set up the artists group Blaengar and has since curated and exhibited in two projects with the group. Blaengar aims to produce art in the landscape and built environment, support emerging artists, and promote cross disciplinary collaboration. 

Recent work includes arts education projects with Artes Mundi and g39, working for Wales at the Venice Biennale 2003 and 2005,  as Arts Facilitator for HAUL arts in health in Ceredigion and project managing artists-in-residence with Cywaith Cymru (now Safle).
