Harriet Forster (b.2002) is a British-Australian artist completing a BFA at the Glasgow School of Art. Finding inspiration from walks and interactions with nature, Harriet uses drawing and photography to study how she experiences her environment. Exploring sensation and texture with mark-making, Harriet aims to invite the audience into a recreated world built from observations. Playing with thoughts of map-making Harriet tells malleable stories regarding how she is inhabiting this planet. Harriet received a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design from The Royal Drawing School (2021), Exchange at Emily Carr University (2022) and is currently pursuing a BA(Hons) in Fine Art at the Glasgow School of Art. Harriet’s work has been exhibited both in the UK and Canada. She completed a residency with Descover Artists in June 2022 on the island of Hydra in Greece and spent a week in Collemacchia, Italy with the Museum of Loss and Renewal on the Drawing Deeply: People, Place and Time program.
