Celia Hempton

Place of birth Stroud
Country of residence United Kingdom

The paintings are initiated by visiting peripheral landscapes. Remote building sites, roadsides, disused canals - neither populated nor without human presence, they are lonely places. Drawings are made on site and brought into the studio, where in a more reflective environment I can become intuitively involved in making a painterly response to the psychological.

Selected exibitions include:
2007 Royal Academy Summer Show, Royal Academy of Arts, London;
S.A.W. Show, Sawill, Glasgow;
Material Intelligence, Keith Talent Gallery at Trinity Buoy Wharf, London
Hot for Teacher, Nog Gallery, London
