Slim Glimpses, 103x93cm_edited.jpg

Amy Winstanley (born 1983, UK) is an artist based in Glasgow. She has a MA from the Sandberg Instituut, Amsterdam (2017-19) and a BA (Hons) in Sculpture from the Edinburgh College of Art (2001-05).

 

Amy's paintings are a reflection of the continual flux of all things whilst the action of painting, and immediacy of paint, fosters a means to take ahold of, and explore, her ideas.​ She is fascinated with entanglement on all scales, the intertwining of human and nonhuman relationships, and reads into eco-philosophy, feminist theory, and indigenous thought. Whilst painting, thoughts merge from this research with intuitive mark making drawn from personal experience, emotion and memory. As a result the paintings reside between a suggestion of things and an un-doing of depiction in a fluid way.

Recent solo exhibitions include Homing, Ginsberg Gallery, Lima, Peru (2024), Soft Spot at A_Place gallery, Glasgow (2024), Slim Glimpses at Cample Line, Dumfriesshire (2023) and Lost Hap at Margot Samel, New York (2023). Recent group exhibitions include Out of Earth, The Approach, London (2024), Opening at A_Place, Glasgow (2023) and Strangers at Rongwrong, Amsterdam (2022). 

Amy is represented by Margot Samel, New York.
