Sophie creates abstract compositions exploring the tension between natural form and the built environment, often deconstructing the familiar, creating layers which evoke a sense of depth and history. She works from her studio in Guildford, Surrey
The themes of strong architectural form and texture found in buildings and in nature which heavily influence Sophie’s work are drawn from time spent in London, southern France, the Bahamas and the southern United States. The work of 19th Century cubist and abstract painters Paul Klee and George Braque and Cornish 20th Century artists Peter and Matthew Lanyon, and Wilhelmina Barns-Graham also continue to inform and inspire
