BIOGRAPHY

Sophia Hewson has worked with oil paints and aspired to be an artist since early childhood. 

At the age of 15 she travelled to Maningrida, a remote Aboriginal community in Arnhem Land where she worked packing aboriginal art works for an international tour, and curating displays. 

She has continued to travel extensively, backpacking through Scandinavia, Europe, the Americas, Asia, and the South Pacific.

In 2007 she completed a first class Honours Degree at The Victorian College of the Arts and on graduating was signed to Lindberg Contemporary Gallery (lindbergcontemporary.com.au). 

Now at the age of 24 she is painting 5 days a week in her Collingwood studio, working towards her debut solo exhibition which will be held this November at Lindberg.
