Biography
Aniela Preston

Aniela Preston (b. 1998, Coventry, UK) graduated from her Fine Art BA at the University of Leeds in 2021 after completing her Foundation Diploma at Central Saint Martins. In 2022 she was selected as a finalist for the Ingram Prize and most recently she has been selected as a finalist for the Royal Society of British Artist’s 2023 Rome Scholarship. 

 

Her work aims to explore the relationship of the individual within the natural world. She is drawn to the rich symbolism and emotive qualities of classical figures within art, and in her paintings, she places them within unnatural spaces and settings. She experiments predominantly with colour palettes, which she selects to add to the ambivalence of the scenes they portray. Painting predominantly in acrylic, she hopes her paintings are not just aesthetic objects, but rather invitations to engage upon the impact with which our individual actions have upon the natural world.
