Paige Perkins is an American born artist based in London. Her work reflects a personal folklore
where the borders between human and animal, fantasy and reality dissolve. The paintings reveal a visionary world
where time and space unfold with a strange logic that springs from darker sources including myths, pagan mysticism
and fairytales. Perkins attended the Turps Banana Art School from 2014 to 2016 and holds an MFA from University of
Brighton 2006. Her work is held in various private collections in the UK and abroad.
