Sophie Crockett merges the self-taught traditions of folk art with the evocative storytelling of magical realism. Her work explores themes of myth, memory, and the natural world.

Raised in Suffolk, Crockett draws inspiration from the folklore and rural traditions of her childhood.  Her art is shaped by a fascination with storytelling, nature, and the enduring meaning in legend and mythology. 

“This is my world of stories, of human myth, graspable forms, colour and nature. I'm not scared of looking for beauty - I'm trying to understand it all, the beauty and the conflicts - a visual metaphor, part loss, part dream where I reach back into a past for symbols to overlay the uncertain futures around me.  My work is an imagined world and tempered by my own leanings, but it's also imagery that’s built from my own experiences and fascinations.  I have a thousand stories to tell, they are the fountain of my work.”

Technically, Crockett works in oil and charcoal. But the real medium here is narrative. Crockett is drawing from the deep well, but looking hard at the present, too — especially the parts of it that feel precarious, lost, or worth saving.
