Eryn Lougheed
Eryn Lougheed is an artist from Vancouver Island, Canada, currently based in London.
Working primarily in oil on canvas and ceramic, her work considers theatrical space as an environment that is both real and imagined, closing the distance between inner and outer realms. It is a world guided by its own internal principles, with objects suspended in space, moving on their own accord. Built up with translucent layers of oil paint, her paintings are windows into phantasmagorical scenes. Populated by recognizable or nearly recognizable forms, they hover in the dreamlike space between familiar and unfamiliar.
Eryn earned a Bachelor of Design from Ontario College of Art and Design University in 2019, and is a part of the Turps Studio Programme 2023-2025 cohort.
"Surreal paintings and sculptures weave together amorphous scenes of specific objects and equivocal narratives, considering notions of craft, femininity, reproduction, repetition, and intervention" — Eryn Lougheed
