Hilary Marshall
I am an experimental mixed media artist with a fascination for manipulating materials. Much of my inspiration is taken from nature.. My background and training is rooted in Graphic design, which I think continues to influence my current work.
I have a particular interest in how different colour pallets work together - leading me to investigate translucency and layering, often suspending images to achieve interesting effects. This exploration has led to my current work having a sense of both vitality and fragility, which I am finding exciting to use as a form of self expression.
I have exhibited at a number of exhibitions including AKA Contemporary, Babylon Arts and take part in Cambridge Open Studios annually. Recently I have been involved in co-curating Art@one, an exciting new venture for promoting and showcasing local artists alongside involving the local community. This has further developed into projects collaborating with schools where I have designed activities for the children and led the visits..
