New Wild Swimmers 2025

The Atlantic has been a back drop to Shaunna’s life growing up in Cornwall, which has informed her ongoing Wild swimmer collection. The works are inspired by our healing relationship with the ocean. How we submerge in to the jewelled greens and blues of the Atlantic can make our troubles seam so much smaller, The Swimmers are often solitary, to highlight  the importance of how spending time alone in nature, has a positive effect on mental wellbeing, offering space for  clarity, reflection and emotional rejuvenation. The swimmers are always looking away from the viewer,  making them only identifiable from their hair colour and skin; this allows the identity of the swimmers to become subjective to whoever is observing. Shaunna feels this allows her audience to opportunity to envisage themselves,  playfully wading in  the dreamy coastal waters on balmy days, offering a much needed therapeutic outlet to the noise of the world.

Find my latest wild swimmers with Mayne Gallery, Kingsbridge, Devon. They will also be making their debut at the affordable art fayre in Battersea, London, in March 2025. Click to see the full collection

The Holiday

2024

With working in the holiday industry for 7 years in one of the most popular coastal dreams in the country, I couldn’t help but draw inspiration from the short getaways located by dreamy waters, room service in hotel rooms and the escapists that occupy them.

This ongoing body of work celebrates the indulgences and little joys of being away. I was inspired by the phrase “desserts first”, to stop following the rational rules of the mind, just cut the cake and take the first slice. Following my intuition, i wanted to create pieces that could whisk you away as a lady of leisure with bright blooms in your room upon arrival; the pudding trolley rolling up to your door with creamy delsigts; fresh summer fruits with Mojito’s in the cabana, refreshing sea swims in the the cornishsummr tidal pools.  

Inspired by the brave wild swimmers of west coasts and the pleasure of leisure This mini series celebrates our relationship with the ocean. Inspired by escapism, I wanted to explore the jewelled greens and blues of the Atlantic which has been a back drop to my life growing up in Cornwall. The series showcases swimmers playfully wading in dreamy waters on balmy days with a simple mission to allow you to envisage your self doing the same.
