Flora Butler

London-based artist Flora Butler graduated with a 1st Class Degree from The University of the Arts London in 2018. She has since founded the community-focused publishing company The Mindful Editions, works with charity Chayn to facilitate a series of creative workshops for survivors of gender-based violence, and continues to develop her painting practice. Butler’s work focuses on the intricate patterns present in nature and highlights their beauty. Inspired by images of cells from different mushrooms and plants, her paintings play with shape and texture, using different mediums to create depth and form. She has had pieces exhibited in galleries across the UK, taken part in numerous group shows, and held her first solo show, Aria, in Hackney at the start of 2022.
