Meg McHugh

Meg McHugh is a multidisciplinary artist from the United Kingdom whose practice spans painting, installation, and performance. Rooted in themes of memory, domesticity, and the quietly surreal, her work is celebrated for its delicate yet evocative approach to everyday materials and histories. McHugh’s creative process, informed by a background in textile design and art history, often incorporates found objects, organic forms, and intricate handwork, resulting in pieces that invite the viewer into an intimate dialogue with the familiar and the uncanny.

Since graduating from the Glasgow School of Art, she has exhibited widely across the UK and Europe, and her installations have been featured in both established galleries and unconventional spaces. McHugh’s ongoing exploration of comfort, nostalgia, and transformation has established her as a distinctive voice in contemporary British art, with critics praising her ability to craft gentle narratives that linger long after viewing.
