Fronde Crennell
Biography
Born in Glasgow in the 80s then raised between London, Dorset, an old Ambulance and The Isle of Mull, Fronde became wandering artist.
​
The underlaying factors that connect her work are motivated by memories of place, loss and love, in which social equality, equal opportunities, mental health and community all plays a part.
​
Connections
"Our journey through life, lived experience underpinned by personal context of social and political awareness. Working towards equality and responsibility."
​
Chance, materials and method
Automatic wanderings resulting in 2D, 3D, Film and Sound works.
​
We are just passing through
"I maintain awareness of the impact of the materials used and the impact of the finished piece. I am interested in the transience of a piece of work. Perhaps that it is unsalable due to the instability of materials or when finished with its components can be returned to their original source. I haven’t yet found a way to work that is fully sustainable, but continue to aspire to this with the use of recycled materials or recycling materials as part of the art form"
