Alice McMurrough is a Scottish artist whose work is concerned with the connectivity of experience. Ideas, observations and dreams are researched, edited and translated into visual statements which help her make sense of the world.

“My art re-interprets memories and cultural and mythological themes to engage with contemporary concerns.
I intertwine events, personal, cultural, real and imagined: my work is informed by family legends, religious fables and cultural myths. I create a reality where patterns and connections are made with apparently diverse subjects. I aim for a childlike clarity in observing experiences, before ritual and maturity strips life of its daily magic.

My work revels in the absence of an authoritative reading. I invite the viewer to engage with the paintings and derive their own interpretation.”
