Michelle Dash

Michelle works from her home studio in Old Sodbury, South Gloucestershire.

She makes two and three dimensional figurative work, in a variety of media, with a strong narrative element, often evoking mystery, the uncanny and dark humour.

She is influenced by the aesthetic of medieval religious art and the visual and dramatic potential of myths and fairy tales with their magical beings, hybrid creatures and themes of transformation.

She is also drawn to the logic of dreams, and the way certain ordinary human-made objects and spaces can be imbued with atmosphere and mystery…perhaps haunted.
