Georgia
Loxton
Knight
Painter
ABOUT
Daughter and granddaughter to landscape painters (mother Isobel Loxton Knight; grandfather Edward Loxton Knight), Georgia has been immersed in drawing and painting since an early age.
Georgia is interested in exploring the fallibility of cognition and the abstract qualities of memory. Diverging from traditionally frail and airy representations of recollection, her practice is punchy and bold, choosing instead to play in the space of distortion and fragmentation.
With the beaches where she lives as her subject, she paints collages of sun-drenched bathers like the memory shards of a thousand summer days, and large-scale distorted waterscapes that invite the viewer to dive in, as if into a dream.
