Mandee Gages work considers our place in the world, the boundaries imposed and innate.
Her interest in sociology, psychology and the environment have shaped her work which often looks at the bizarre self-destructive nature of our system and our struggle to adapt.
She works as a mixed media artist often using clay, wax, fabric, paper and waste plastic. She utilises her ceramic skills alongside processes of attaching, sewing, twisting and organising.
Some work utilizes story telling in dioramas, casting a sardonic humour on our behaviour.

‘We reside in a space between forces. Between those entities that seek to control and the natural workings of nature. We must navigate this space, the pressures, the denial, our desires, and the need to safeguard what is truly precious.’ Mandee Gage, 2023

‘neo-liberal economic thinking that ignores social wellbeing has led to massive inequality and decreasing quality of life for many, even in high income countries’ Addicted to Growth by Robert Costanza

The 147 Women Dinner Party project

The private view of 147 Women Dinner Party project (below) at The Stash gallery in February 2022. The exhibition of 147 handmade and decorated pieces then toured to Beecroft Public Art Gallery in Southend in March and Broomhill Estate in Barnstaple in April. This is the area of Britain where motto-ware originated.
This project between myself and Sophie Parkin took over year to make and celebrates the amazing achievements of 147 women who have contributed to British culture and knowledge. We used the maxims of Pythia of Delphi who advised men how to rule. Now just 15 pieces still available.
