Wendy Taylor

Categories: Sculpture

Sculptor resident in Bow. Studied at St. Martin's School of Art. Her philosophy is to 'take art out of the galleries and out onto the streets', and has probably more original permanent sculptures on public display than any other living British artist. She has also created a sundial at St Katherine Docks.

2016: Taylor is battling the Chinese over copyright.
