Alex Malcolmson
About the artist
Alex Malcolmson was born in Shetland in 1955 and studied drawing, painting and printmaking at Edinburgh College of Art. He worked in the Northern Isles for several years teaching, painting and exhibiting and then moved back to Edinburgh to work as curator of the Scottish Crafts Collection, now part of the collection of The National Museum of Scotland.
In 1985 he established Godfrey & Watt in Yorkshire, exhibiting and promoting some of the finest work by artists and makers from throughout the UK. His work has frequently been exhibited at Godfrey & Watt and in exhibitions elsewhere around the UK. Sailing trips, the Northern Isles and marine folk art provide much inspiration for the work
Most of the work he has done over the past ten years or so has been in the form of box constructions made mainly from wood; carved and painted, sometimes using found materials.
