the artist

a south london based artist focusing on lino printing, ellen has cultivated an intimate and therapeutic creative practice which asks us as viewers to explore the beauty of stillness. originally from california, ellen studied her bachelor of art history in rome and has taken inspiration from japanese ukiyo-e printmaking, greek and roman pottery and renaissance art. her serene, restrained and thoughtful artworks have arisen from an exploration of self as she searches for a sense of home in her own being.

the story

ellen first visited epping forest during the summer of 2021. the farthest from her home she had travelled in a year after a time of seclusion that so many of us can relate too.  entering the shimmering canopy of the forest, ellen felt shrouded in peace. the dance of light and shadow, glimpses of wild rabbits and other wildlife. it was a welcome refuge from london’s constant distractions.

 ‘she had tree’s in her eyes’ is a moment of calm. a place to settle in the forest and breathe deep. this piece speaks of the tranquilly ellen felt upon entering this magical place and the endless gratitude of having these spaces hidden within our city.
