Linda Preece is a Norfolk‑based mixed‑media artist whose work transforms the overlooked and the everyday into richly textured, sculptural pieces. Born in Essex and living in Norfolk for more than 60 years, Linda has built a creative life rooted in craft, community and an instinctive respect for materials.
Her practice centres on recycled and reclaimed objects like plastics, food containers, packaging, discarded household items, natural finds like leaves and seed pods and even fragments of old furniture. Nothing is too ordinary to be reimagined. Linda’s pieces carry the quiet history of the materials she saves, reshaped into bold, tactile artworks that celebrate colour, form and the beauty of reuse.
Before turning her focus to mixed media, Linda spent 12 years teaching wood carving, passing on traditional skills and encouraging others to explore their own creativity. Her craftsmanship can be seen in two village signs she carved for Hellesdon and Burgh St Margaret as well as in a series of sculpted heads that reflect her long standing interest in form and character.
Though this is her first time exhibiting in a gallery Linda is no stranger to the art world and for many years she have steadily developing her voice and experimenting with materials long before sustainability became a trend.
At Art Angles, Linda’s work stands out for its energy, its layered surfaces and its commitment to giving discarded materials a second life. Each piece is a small act of transformation and a reminder that creativity can begin anywhere, with anything in the hands of someone who sees potential where others see waste.
