For more than 30 years, Bradshaw has been experimenting with indeterminacy and the aesthetics of chance. Change is at the heart of her paintings and sculptures, which combine chemical elements with natural processes to create what is simultaneously a scientific experiment and a work of art. A record of impermanence and flux, Bradshaw’s art has often confounded viewers and collectors since the piece they admired or purchased could change significantly over time.
Like the composer John Cage, with whom she has been associated, Bradshaw provokes new conceptions of time and space. Her art is never fixed. Her work has some of its deepest roots in the Dada of Duchamp, Conceptual Art, and the Fluxus movement.
Bradshaw believes that the artist’s role in this universe is that of instigator or manipulator of the natural elements. By initiating the reaction of diverse elements, the artist, like the viewer, essentially steps back and watches to see what happens next.
