Paige Bradley  

Starting with pencil and paper, Paige Bradley took her art seriously at the age of nine. Born in California in 1974, she attended the Pennsylvania Academy of Art and Pepperdine University in Malibu, California, and Florence, Italy. As a happily married artist, businesswoman, and mother of two, life is full and abundant.

As one of the leading figurative sculptors of our generation, Paige explores the human body as a vehicle to communicate the struggles, isolations, limitations, and ruptures of today. Her work captures the light of the spirit and the power of the body while capturing a beautiful mortality that is both fragile and ferocious. Repeatedly listed as having created some of the most intriguing and creative works of art in the world, people connect deeply with the imagery in Paige's sculptures .

Paige's studio is now located in Stamford, Connecticut. For the past twenty years, she has maintained sculpture studios in London, California, and New York City. She has worked with the same foundry since she was 17, often creating her own patinas and detail work. Paige's collectors know her as a prolific perfectionist, creating works that speak to today's sensibilities and will also be appreciated for generations to come.
