Georgia Semple

Overview
Georgia Semple

Georgia Semple (b. 1995) centers her work on a fascination with the duality of perception and reality. Exploring themes of identity, faith, addiction, and connection, her paintings depict imagined scenes of Black communities, inspired by misunderstood personal experiences.


Her practice emerged from an exploration of her Guyanese heritage, studying the correlation between ancient rock carvings and Black and Indigenous behaviors. Interested in how we dress scenes in our lives with our perspectives—even in unassuming places—her work unravels the chaos in vulnerability, warping context and scale in surreal settings to symbolise the delusions formed by attachment to personal ideology.
