Tove Bowyer

Tove Bowyer is a Danish sculptor, painter & ceramicist who divides her time between her native country and her main studio in London. She has exhibited in UK for over twenty years.

Her recent work is mostly in alabaster and soapstone, Tove has at intervals communicated themes through her sculptures about the "straightjackets" of this world, such as orthodox religion, ageism, and the impact of over­ population. These were made in stoneware and bronze.
