Biography
Phoebe Unwin (b. Cambridge, UK 1979) trained at Newcastle University and the Slade School of Fine Art. She has developed a singular and unique practice that relies on the continual collecting of ideas, scraps of the material world, images, textures and memories of transient life experiences and these are compiled in sketch books. The content of these books are the inspiration and source material for making paintings. Everyday events become transformed in Unwin’s work. Solo exhibitions include The Pointed Finger, (2023); Osmosis (2020) and at Pregnant Landscape (2018) all at Amanda Wilkinson Gallery, London; Iris (2019), Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne; Field (2018), Collezione Maramotti, Reggio Emilia, Italy and solo presentation of the works in the collection, The Saatchi Gallery, London.
