Background

Tracey originally trained in Metalwork and Jewellery, completing her BA at Loughborough College of Art, and then her MA at the Royal College of Art. While studying for her MA her work transitioned to a sculptural practice focused on adornment, which evolved into a fine art practice in the years that followed her graduation.

Alongside her artistic practice, Tracey also established roles as a college lecturer in art and design and lecturer in critical and theoretical studies.  In 2016, she co-founded Micklethwaite Studios in Driffield, East Yorkshire, with Alan Micklethwaite. These studios accommodate their individual and shared studios, a teaching space, and a display space where they regularly show work made in their studios.
