About Me

Selina di Girolamo’s mixed media paintings explore the numinous power of place. Striving to be intimate, emotionally present and transformative, each piece is inspired through a deep shamanic relationship with the animistic landscape. Currently engaged in painting and drawing the East Sussex countryside around Hastings, in which she lives, many works reflect the diversity of local beaches, woods and downland. Fabric and paint create layers that invite excavation, to find form in the ever-changing seasonal shift that conceals and reveals the mortality at the core of all human and natural cycles.An elected member of the Royal Society of British Artists, South Coast Artists, a Board member of the Arts Forum and former chair of the Education Committee at the Federation of British Artists, Selina is a passionate advocate for the arts and her work is highly sought after.Selina has won many awards including the Creating Reality Award and the St Cuthberts Mill prize for works on paper.OPEN STUDIO NOVEMBER 21ST 7-9PM NOVEMBER 22ND 12-4PM NOVEMBER 23RD 12-4PM SHOWING NEW GODDESSES, BOAT PAINTINGS & SHAMANIC LANDSCAPES 68 Norman Road,St Leonards on Sea, Hastings.
