CHLOE BONFIELD

Chloe Bonfield is a UK-based artist and illustrator whose multifaceted practice bridges the worlds of painting, drawing, and storytelling. Working as an illustrator since 2008, Chloe transitioned to painting in 2023, blending her foundational drawing techniques with an exploratory approach to paint. Her work delves into the spaces in between worlds, creating ghostly images that evoke transformation and reflection, addressing themes of disintegrating cosmology and the reinvention of collective tropes in a changing world.

Bonfield’s paintings and drawings are held in private collections across the UK and Turkey. Her recent exhibitions include Milieu Studio in St Ives (2023), Alma Artspace in Newquay Orchard (2023–24), and Potager Gardens (2024). She was awarded a scholarship by Stiftung Kunstfonds in 2022 for a collaborative project with Anna-Luise Lorenz. Her other notable projects include a residency at Unit3 funded by the Tresorys Fund (2022) and coordination of the Stile Collective, supported by Creative Kernow.
