The main themes that run through Alison’s work look at issues concerning identity and belonging, migration and living conditions. These interests were doubtlessly born from Alison’s experiences of constantly moving from country to country and the resulting ambivalence towards the idea of her own national identity and her feeling of not belonging to any particular country or community.
Alison has a fine arts background and holds degrees from the University of Southampton, the Haute Ecole d’Art et de Design in Geneva and the Open College of the Arts.
