Eloise Dunwell is an Artist and Curator who studied Foundation in Art and Design in Plymouth, before moving to Bristol to undertake my undergraduate degree in Fine Art and an MA in Curating at UWE.
Raised in Australia, her sense of creativity was heavily influence by the flora & fauna there, with even the quality of light affecting the style of her loose, interpretive paintings.
The collective objects often featured in these dream-like interpretations were found whilst beach-combing the Northwest coast of Tasmania, and found objects went on to continue being a profoundly influential element in Eloise's work.
Inspired by Matthew Partington developing the UWE Curating MA in 2015, Eloise continued to hone her mentoring skills within the arts industry as well as enhancing her already found love of Curating objects and collections.
This set her in good stead to go on to develop several high-profile artworks from renowned artists, alongside the Public Arts NGO, 'Situations'.
Theaster Gates, Katie Paterson and Michael Sailstorfer are amongst some of the names she has worked with.
Her passions continues to revolve around community projects; with a current role as Community Manager for Devon-based co-working spaces, Alma Yard and Light Studios, and recently co-founding the Plymouth-based arts collective: SOOP.
