Since I was a toddler I’ve explored, consciously and unconsciously, creativity’s capacity to enhance all aspects of life. Painting, sculpting, writing music, singing, dancing and writing are some channels for my own creativity.

These passions have led me on a winding journey, twisting and turning through a degree in English Literature & History of Art, a stint in a band, recording an E.P. of my own music, completing a Fine Art Masters, a ten-year (and counting) career as an internationally exhibiting artist, a writer of poetry, prose & articles, many courses on psychology and philosophy, obsessional Forro & Salsa dancing, and so on.

All these tributaries make up the river of Georgie, in all my flowing, fluid, fullness. These days I feel like I’m living my dream life. If someone asked me what I would do with myself if I had all the money and time in the world, I would say exactly what I do now. (Except maybe by the sea, in a warmer country, with a dog … there’s still time!).

But it wasn’t always like that. I’ve moved through periods of intense difficulty and darkness. And now I get to offer guidance, through methods relentlessly tried and tested on myself, to others so that they - you - can also live your best life, no matter what you’re going through.

Thank you so much for being here. I cant wait to see what we can co-create together…

Jung’s greatest accomplishment was to reveal the unconscious to be the creative source of all that we eventually accomplish as individuals

- Monica Wagner

My interdisciplinary work is made in response to my personal journey into understanding the unconscious mind and dismantling inner barriers. A deep interest in Jungian psychology, inner alchemy and energetic healing informs my practise.

I collect fragmented and buried objects from my surroundings, recently the shore of the Thames and the CUF in Lisbon. Using this raw matter as a metaphor for fragmented and buried parts of my own body, I create sculptures, installations, performances and music that redefine such 'objects' as visible and valuable.

As alchemists allegedly turned base metal to gold, I am led by my materials and their fatalistic interactions to create works that mirror and catalyses my own ‘archaeology of soul’. Meanwhile, I hope the work might inspire viewers to acknowledge and embrace their own discomfort as a path towards collective healing and societal evolution.

Based in East London, I received my MA in Fine Art from City and Guilds art school in 2023, shortly after which I completed a two-month residency at PADA in Portugal.

London solo shows include Wild Horses at Unit G Gallery, You are loved always at E5 Bakehouse, and Between the Two Waves of the Sea at London Made Me on Regent Street.

Group exhibitions include Arc Salon Painswick curated by Anna Woodward, Crawl Space curated by Fresh Salad at Euston Crypt, The Graduate Art Fair at Woolff Gallery Mayfair, Works on Paper 5 at Blue Shop Cottage & The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.

Georgie has also curated a number of shows including The Wild Geese Call at Old Street Gallery and Ash + Sun at Somerton House in Bath. She has work in private and public collections internationally, including 31 St James' Sq in London and the Museum of Goa in India.
