Harriet Gillet

Responding to an increasingly digitalised world where images and time periods merge and appear in one
seemingly eternal present, Harriet Gillett hopes to slow down these increasingly fast-paced encounters into
images of reverie. Taking reference from the emotionally charged vibrancy of post-Impressionism and the
devotional nature of Western religious formats, her combination of traditional subjects with contemporary
materials enables her to tread a line between multiple perspectives and time periods.

Harriet Gillett (b.1995 East Yorkshire) is an artist living and working in London. She received her MA in Fine Art
at City and Guilds art school in 2022 after studying a BA in English Literature at Edinburgh University (2017).
Recent exhibitions include group shows at Brooke Benington, Roman Road, Delphian x Saatchi and duos with
Soho Revue and New Normal Projects. She was shortlisted for the Ingram prize in 2020 and is one of the 2023
New Contemporaries. She is currently undertaking the Palazzo Monti Residency.
