Boa Swindler

Inspired by the techniques of DaDa, Boa Swindler works across media with subject matter derived from memories, news headlines, tv and advertising, with tongue firmly planted in cheek. The emphasis is on simplicity and during the creative process nothing is corrected. Swindler trained in printmaking and painting at CSM, LCC and UEL. Internationally exhibited, including the 53rd Venice Biennale, her work is in private collections in New York, Tokyo, Zurich and London, including the Factory Art Collection and the V&A Museum. She is represented by WW Gallery.
