Sophie is a London-based artist and art critic, whose writing has been published in frieze, Apollo, Elephant, and Dazed. Her paintings and drawings often explore the dynamics between humans and nature through surrealism and symbolism. Her imagery is devised from a large archive of the source material, including screenshots of YouTube videos, scenes from art history, photos of her friends, Tarot cards, Miranda July’s disconcerting short stories, observational drawings, strangers’ holiday photos found in junk shops, and dreams. By merging these disparate elements when devising a composition, she seeks to comment on the cyclical and illusory nature of time and the collective unconscious.
If you're interested in her writings you can find them in Frieze, Dazed, and Confused Magazine.
