Elinor Stanley

B. 1992, LONDON, UK

Elinor Stanley previously studied at Glasgow School of Art and Open School East, Margate.

Stanley uses painting to amplify and heighten experience; the figurative focus of a painting shifts as a confused eye might. The painting configures a weighted, biased gaze, a sense of unsteadiness or vertigo. Stanley’s work is founded in  drawing. She works in series, creating multiple iterations of repeating images. Subjects and ideas circle as they do in the mind, turning over and over.
