Biography
Margot is a Glasgow born and based artist who began her formal education at Glasgow School of Art studying form and sculpture in 2004. Shortly after beginning her studies went on to create self builds for deprived communities for which she earned an MBE for her work. Margot is currently working in mixed media with a focus on collage work where she interprets daily newspaper photography into unusual compositions to reflect on society through its preoccupation with celebrity and our image conscious world. Her painting work in the main covers portraiture and political comment. This is communicated through the lens of our turbulent political climate, seeking to critique current policy towards the country’s shift to the right and possible consequences for our society.
