“I make paintings that create dreamlike narratives that flow through life and work, telling modern folk stories about feminine relationships and roles. The figures are on a mission, often lost or searching in natural surroundings and the unseen power and strength that guides them”

Heidi Plant is a multi disciplinary artist, exploring feminine relationships and roles through a modern folk lens. She creates dreamlike narratives that flow through life and work.


Her figures are on a mission, often lost or searching in natural surroundings and the unseen power and strength that guides them. There is a tension that balances the figures between carefree play and escape from societal traps and internalised pressures. They are playful and hopeful and a little bit uneasy. There is an implied presence, a feeling of something you can’t see. They are a mix of familiar memories and childhood visions, a call back to simpler times perhaps but also a place where uncomfortable feelings are remembered. They are looking for the safety of home.

Heidi Plant works with colour and textures to create bold expressions in paint whilst allowing for fragile moments to exist.
