ARTIST BIO

Saatchi artist Victoria Horkan has exhibited her work in prestigious galleries all over London and overseas. In her latest collection her work addresses evolution and explores the idea of how butterflies and nature may transform and adapt to climate changes in the future. She cuts fragmented pieces of photography to distort the shape of the butterfly, however by presenting them together in a formation she’s also supporting a notion of togetherness. By grouping the butterflies in circular motion, she breathes life and eternity by portraying a message of positivity within her pieces.

There's also a nod to Attenborough within Horkan’s paintings, and his extensive work captured on film the extraordinary world we don't always have the privilege of seeing first hand. Horkan wanted to emulate that through her natural ability to create movement within her paintings.

'In the natural world animals with the strongest gene pool adapt and evolve. I foster an evolutionarily process in developing my artwork, stronger pieces are developed from one aspect, or organism to another. One piece comes out of something very small, I am still evolving'.
