Hello

Grace Penton is a Christian and multi-disciplinary artist; she works in a spontaneous way, developing ideas from things she’s read and watched, especially from her childhood. The Bible is a core inspiration, the fantastic imagery used to get across important messages influences her to do the same, as she creates outlandish and comedic costumes, layered with meaning, and the need to understand Jesus and the world around her. She gravitates towards accessible materials, like cardboard, papier-mâché and paint; they’re easy to manipulate, reinforcing her necessity to create. She often braves the fear of embarrassment, as a lot of her work is performance based, leaning towards film to document it, but also as an art form in its own right.
