Explore: Susie Hamilton

(1950 - )

Susie Hamilton is a London-based artist whose paintings explore the place of figures in the wilderness, both literal (the Arctic) and metaphorical (an urban superstore). She studied painting at Central Saint Martins and Byam Shaw School of Art. Since 2018, she has been commissioned by arts and mental health charity Hospital Rooms to paint murals in psychiatric intensive care units and, in 2022, made three paintings for the central staircase of the new Springfield University Hospital in Tooting, London. She has exhibited widely in recent years, in the UK and internationally. Her works referencing the Covid-19 pandemic have been acquired by the British Museum, the Science Museum and Imperial College.
