Susie Hamilton

[6][7] In 2022 she completed 3 large paintings based on Chinese poetry for the central staircase of the new hospital in Tooting.

In 2021 she painted a triptych for Askew psychiatric intensive care unit in Hammersmith, with a filmed interview by Ben Luke as part of the WHO programme, “Healing Arts: The Future is Unwritten”.

[9] In 2020, she made a series of work showing doctors, nurses and patients facing Covid-19,[10] some of which are now held by The Science Museum.

[17][18] Hamilton has been called a "flâneur" since she observes from the sidelines, scrutinising tourists, shoppers, holidaymakers, diners, hen nights and other scenes of leisure.

She has to work extremely quickly to catch particular movements and poses and this means that her figures are compressed, abbreviated and simplified and usually morph into something misshapen and grotesque.
