ARTIST INFO

About 

Crimson studied Art History Africa and Asia at SOAS and worked at Battersea Arts Centre after graduating. It was a very creative environment and her boss, Tom Morris, encouraged her to do 'what she really wanted to', a novel notion for a girl from a council estate who was resigned to working to make ends meet. She studied Life Drawing, Digital illustration and also achieved a Foundation Art and Design at Chelsea Art School, UAL and went on to a BA Fine Art at Central St Martins, however after completing the first year she fell pregnant and suffered several years of infertility. She never returned to St Martins, but is studying MA Fine Art at Brighton Uni. She received an ACE grant in 2022 to develop her painting practice and is receiving mentorship from The New Art School. She has two children and works to support herself.

Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork 

Working from my imagination is a choice, it's a way of valuing the self; a way to reclaim time. It's a way to explore different qualities of thought. It's an act of free falling and trusting; it's hopeful and beautiful and a gentle rebellion.
