Mia Wilkinson (UK) lives and works in London. She toys with Western stereotypes of the domestic female in her art. She undermines the performative nature of women as “the angel in the house,” electrifying her figures with a grotesque, playful sexuality and situating them in caricaturised, lurid domestic settings. Shaped by a strong but complex matriarchy, the artist learned that a female body holds both social currency and relative social invisibility. The experience of paternal absence, and its ramifications for her racial identity, combined with the dominant female forces that raised her, find presence and voice in the bawdiness of the women she depicts—skewing and skewering culturally imposed expectations and artistic traditions. Wilkinson is currently studying MA Painting at the RCA. She has BA Painting at Wimbledon College of art UAL.
