Born in 1995 in Leicestershire, Phoebe Boddy lives and works in London. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts from Loughborough University. Her work explores the many connections between the two creative fields of food and art. These contemporary abstract paintings are always titled after, or related to, food, and are as layered and complex as the recipes that inspire her.
Phoebe Boddy’s Style and Practice
After graduating from Loughborough University in 2017 with a degree in Fine Art, Phoebe featured her works in spaces such as Brick Lane Gallery and the Truman Brewery in London. She infuses her food paintings with bold colours and forms. Through painting, she interprets flavour as a colour, envisions texture as a mark and translates shapes onto the canvas.
Awards and Current Projects
Throughout her career, Boddy has been honored with several prestigious awards, including the Figurative Art Prize at Mall Galleries in August 2021, a nomination for the Kate Bryan Prize in 2021, and being selected as a SAATCHI Art Director's Pick in 2020.*
