WILLIAM WRIGHT (b. 1971, London, UK) is a London based artist who paints from both memory and imagination, taking inspiration where personal life and studio practice intersect on a daily basis. Intimate in scale and muted in color palette, Wright's paintings evolve over several weeks and sometimes months through a repetitive reworking of the canvas through painting, sanding down and re-painting. This meditative process imbues a unique sense of time, contemplation and texture throughout the work.

Wright studied at Leeds Metropolitan University, and since has held solo exhibitions at Sea View Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (2024); Galerie Ariane C-Y, Paris, FR (2023); Seventh House Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (2022); Lyndsey Ingram, London, UK (2022); and The Art Stable, Dorset, UK (2019). Select group exhibitions include Micki Meng Gallery, New York, NY (2024); Sea View Gallery, Los Angeles, CA (2024); Charleston, East Sussex, UK (2022); Lyndsay Ingram, London, UK (2021); Galerie Ariane C-Y, Paris, FR (2020); and The Eagle Gallery, London, UK (2019). Wright has a forthcoming exhibition at Josh Lilley Gallery, London, UK (2024).
