Amelia Clamp

Recent graduate from Leeds Art University, UK with a first-class BA Hons degree in Fine Art. Amelia is an English oil painter currently based in Adelaide SA, whose work concerns the documentation of the everyday.

I explore ideas of 'chronicling a time’ and use my practice as a method of journaling my experiences. My paintings are all a part of a continuously growing collection representing a timeline of my life, with inspiration coming from photographer’s work, especially focusing on their narratives and concepts. I enjoy the act of recreating a digitally captured moment through my own impression with the medium of paint. My main influences are the painters, Zoey Frank and Edmond Praybe and photographers, Stephan Shore and Vivian Maier.

Amelia has been involved in multiple exhibitions including a solo show at Discraceland, UK which was self-curated and have done commission work with a food and drink chain called Slap & Pickles, where Amelia’s work is currently displayed in one of their London venues.
