Artist biography:

Imogen Marsteller is a painter born in Tucson Arizona to a British mother and American father. She has a distinctive painting style where she fuses a graphic and painterly sensibility, as evidenced by her strong use of line, playful colour choices and shade, with a visual focus on contemporary intimacy. Imogen has a wide range of art historical influences, including Pop, Renaissance and Baroque art, with a particular interest in female artists. Her paintings function as feminist coming-of-age stories inspired by her own life experiences, the lives of the women around her, and how women's stories are being told to wider audiences through media such as film.

After completing a BA in Visual Arts and Art and Architectural History at Sarah Lawrence College in New York, she spent seven months working at The Fish Factory Creative Centre of Stöðvarfjörður in the east of Iceland. There, she worked in relative isolation and experimented freely, honing her stylistic choices. Imogen is passionate about continual learning and completed her MFA from Goldsmiths University of London in 2024. She is continuing to make paintings in London United Kingdom.

Imogen's works have been exhibited at galleries in London and greater New York.
