Gilly McCadden
“I’m interested in paring images down to their essence and am inspired by the simple
beauty of plants. I aim to achieve a point of purity, both in form and colour.
Screenprinting is the perfect medium for my work as it allows me to deconstruct an image
and rebuild it in as many or few layers as I choose”.

Gilly McCadden studied Fine Art at Brighton College of Art. She later worked for many
years as a colourist for a London based Fine Art Print publisher, specializing in hand
painted colour separations for limited edition screenprints. Later, wanting to pursue her
growing passion for all things horticultural she went on to have a successful career as a
garden designer.
A deep understanding of screenprinting techniques gained during her earlier work, combined
with the detailed observation of plant structures, has led to her latest series of
plant-based images. In her work Gilly seeks to re-describe and create a new understanding
of the plant form whilst retaining its intrinsic character.
Gilly McCaddens work has been widely exhibited throughout the UK.
