Suhaylah H
Suhaylah is a compulsive note-taker in many forms – writing, sketching, collecting objects, recording sounds, and images – a practice which combined itself quite naturally with a love of walking and hiking since childhood. To Suhaylah, making art is an extension of this. Studying both Environmental Geography and Comparative Literature at university created a greater curiosity for these already deeply ruminative practices, steeped in symbolism.
"Inspired by my evening walks, these six paintings recall that mysterious and invitingly warm space on the fringe of a darkness, where the plants glow, light shimmers around clusters of historic rocks, and the remnants of tall ruins stand waiting like old friends trapped in time." — Suhaylah H

"I had a dream some time ago in which I came across a large tower structure while walking out in the countryside. I wanted to explore the tower but failed to do so properly before I awoke. These paintings are the imagined views from this dream tower, sitting within a vast garden of foliage bursting through the tower's windows and gates." - Suhaylah H, The Lost Tower Views

'Suhaylah’s work stood out immediately for the fluidity of the strokes, the dreamlike quality of the palette and almost ecstatic use of light' — Mollie E Barnes, Independent curator and Founder of The Residency
