Georgina Stone: Abstraction Lit by Memory and Motion

Georgina Stone, a London-based painter born in the UK in 1996, sees painting as an evolving process rather than a fixed plan. She earned her BA in Painting from the University of Brighton in 2018 and is on track to complete her MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art in 2024. Her art features complex textures achieved through techniques like scraping and using materials such as acrylic, spray paint, glitter, and various mixed media, often employing tools like nails and sticks. Stone's work frequently presents recognizable, creature-like and anthropomorphic forms, combining abstract and figurative elements. She delves into themes of nostalgia and femininity, drawing inspiration from artists like Frank Bowling and Joan Mitchell, and has exhibited her art in the UK and internationally, balancing seriousness with a sense of play.
