Louise Hopkins (English, born 1965)
Hopkins was born in Hertfordshire and studied at Newcastle-upon-Tyne Polytechnic and Glasgow School of Art. Her work is primarily concerned with the transformation of pre-existing surfaces. These have included furnishing fabrics, song sheets, pages from history books, newspapers and maps. In doing this, she transforms something familiar into a work of art. Hopkins was shortlisted for the Jerwood Painting Prize in 1997 and won a Scottish Arts Council Creative Scotland Award in 2002. She lives and works in Glasgow.
