Sophie-Elizabeth Thompson is a British sculptor, who after completing her degree in 3D Design and Ceramics at Bath College of Higher Education, has exhibited in numerous places in the UK, France and Spain.
She currently lives and works in Barcelona co-running artists studio space “LaNaveBCN studios” for both local and international artists.
 The work created is sculptural in the purest sense, with each piece hand-made and unique. What fascinates her is the underlying skeletal structure of natural found objects such as bones, plants, seeds, pebbles and in this case, wings
