About
Louisa Chambers’ current practice begins in the everyday—suburbia, boredom, routine and overlooked wild spaces at the edges of urban environments. Drawing from both observation and memory, she explores shifting relationships with self, space and environment through a childlike lens of curiosity and unease. Figures emerge—peeping, morphing, watching—alongside a recurring bird-like creature, an alter ego born from her experience of matrescence, the transformation of becoming a mother. Recently, her practice has embraced intuitive mark-making within drawing and painting processes, allowing imagined worlds to surface—hybrid spaces between the familiar and the fantastical. Ultimately, her work reframes the mundane into something strange and otherworldly. Chambers graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2007 (MA Painting), is Resident Artist at Primary in Nottingham and Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University. She has recently completed studying Online Drawing Development Year 2025 at the Royal Drawing School.
