Brice's artwork is interdisciplinary and is inspired by the intersection between nature, science, technology and ecological sustainability. Recent research has focussed on nanotechnology, textiles and the smart fabric future.
Meredith Brice’s art is grounded in a philosophy that investigates the changing relationship between people and place. An interest in textiles, science, technology and ecological sustainability underpins her work. Brice’s art questions contemporary society and its artificial structures and rhythms, to which, out of necessity, we have become attuned. References in Brice’s work to craft traditions based in textiles, including quilt-making, weaving and embroidery, are metaphoric of a united future, shaped by caring social contexts and the protection of natural environments. Brice arranges, classifies, and compares ‘people-made’ or manipulated environments with natural ones.
