Suzanne Moxhay
Real and illusory space blend to leave the viewer uncertain about space or depth in British-born Suzanne Moxhay’s photographs—a realm between the staged picture, the tableau vivant, and the dreamy unreality of a film still.

Moxhay has exhibited widely, both nationally and internationally since 2002 and her work is held in many significant public and private collections including the University of the Arts Collection, The Royal Academy of Arts, and The Cooper Union New York. She has featured in numerous publications including The Guardian, A-N Magazine and Art World Magazine and has been profiled and interviewed on the BBC Culture Show.
Exhibitions include Victoria House, London, WW Gallery at the Venice Biennale and at the Royal Academy of Arts. Her animation work has been shown as part of the programme Do Billboards Dream of Electric Screens? on BBC public screens in cities across the UK and she has had two prints commissioned by the Royal Academy of Arts.
