about

fuchsia is a mixed-media artist currently in residency at Sarabande (the Alexander McQueen Foundation) in London. Working primarily with watercolour and oils, she explores concepts of good and evil through carefully selected colour palettes and spiritual iconography. fuchsia paints angels and underwater creatures in dream-like landscapes and fervently believes in the power of these celestial beings. In her eyes, angels represent the deepest state of our core as humans - love, vulnerability and innocence - all things we regrettablygradually let go of when entering adulthood. her paintings are overflowing with symbols of beauty and chaos, and aim to highlight certain conflicting moral forces we face in today’s complex world, namely issues on climate change which seem to preoccupy the minds of her angels.

her technique of placing dynamic brushwork alongside softer, smoother strokes, aims to further put to light this notion of contrast between good and evil, light and dark, our spiritual state and our human state… her paintings - swaying between abstraction and semi-realism - encourage a philosophical dialogue among the viewer that she hopes, will transcend beyond the exhibition space.
