Ophelia Redpath: Meet the Artist

On the opening night of her exhibition, Ophelia Redpath will be talking informally with visitors about her art.

With a career spanning 40 years, Ophelia has exhibited work in over 100 shows in the UK and overseas, painted several murals and produced two books. She became a household name in 2021 when she won Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year and was David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year 2023 in the Environmental Artivism and Editor's Choice categories. Her 2014 illustrated book, The Lemur's Tale, was nominated for the Kate Greenaway Prize for Children's Literature. 

Her figurative oil paintings are versed in traditional techniques with a symbolic language of her own, and her current work explores the relationship between civilisation and the wilderness, highlighting the conflicts and the possibilities of change.
