| Rebecca Hawkins graduated
with a degree in Fine Art Sculpture from Central St Martins
and City and Guilds of London Art school in 2001.
Working as a full-time artist ever since,
Rebecca is rapidly acquiring a highly respected reputation in the
realms of both drawing and sculpture.
In both these fields Rebecca's work is united by the central theme flowing through
her work - curves. In her own words Rebecca explains,
'I have always admired the way that
nature, in its elegance and economy, creates the most beautiful of
forms and curves. I love the way the light moves over a curve,
the way the graceful curl of an unfurling leaf or rose bud is
echoed in the curling structure inside a seashell, the sight of
birds in flight or swirling fish. What intrigues me about these
elegant forms and curves is their ambiguity and how this ambiguity
can be reminiscent of different things to different people.'
Rebecca has recently returned to the UK
after three months in Nepal working as a volunteer for the Esther
Benjamins Trust on a charitable project combining art
therapy and
vocational training in sculptural techniques to
give victims of child trafficking a future.
