Amelia Hemmings

Amelia Hemmings works from direct experience of landscape. Walking in remote places is central to her practice, shaping both the subject matter and the way the work is made.

She uses photography to record moments of change — shifts in light, weather, and water. These observations are worked through in the studio using paint and ink to establish structure and composition.

The work is then developed as linocut, monoprint/monotype. The resulting prints are not literal records of place, but responses to it, shaped by memory rather than direct representation. Her work reflects the experience of being within a landscape, rather than viewing it from a distance.

She has recently taken part as a pod artist on Sky Arts’ Landscape Artist of the Year.
