Antonia Showering
b. 1991, United Kingdom
British artist Antonia Showering (b. 1991) is known for her richly layered depictions of family members in landscape settings, deployed in warm, velvety washes of red, orange and green. Ambiguous yet psychologically charged, Showering’s paintings err between the abstract and the allegorical. Showering holds a BA with honours from City and Guilds of London Art School (2016) and an MFA in Fine Art from Slade School of Fine Art (2018). She has been featured in dozens of group exhibitions, including Society at Chalton Gallery, London (2019); Out Of This World at Stephen Friedman Gallery, London (2019); In the Company Of at TJ Boulting Gallery, London (2018); New Contemporaries at South London Gallery, London (2018); Mark Shand’s Adventures and Curiosities at Hauser & Wirth, London (2018); and Great Women Artists at Mother, London (2017). Showering was the recipient of the New Contemporaries x SPACE Studio Bursary Award in 2018, The Great Women Artists Residency at Palazzo Monti in 2018 and the 2018 Henry Tonks Award.
