Millie Griffiths is an abstract artist that focuses specifically on bridging together art and meditation while seeing process as the fundamental tool in how she encourages the viewer to engage with the artwork. She is a mixed media artist that works mostly with found materials or raw canvases and uses mark making with especially oil stick, charcoal and ink as a way of producing a sensory and tactile approach to the practice. Millie is interested in how the absence of paint can hold a sense of presence, and how the viewer's attention shifts between what has been added and what has been left untouched. Sustained mark-making becomes a form of attention, allowing the process to guide the development of the work moving the eye of the viewer around the canvas. At times she includes figuration within the compositions exploring how painting can hold both the physical experience of making within the primitive marks as well as a narrative that encourages the viewer to feel these very human and nature related elements in the work reminding us that we are a part of nature.

Griffiths’ art has reached more visibility in the last year as she showed her work at the Saatchi Gallery at the British Art Fair with Tanya Baxter Contemporary Art Gallery. She has also show her work in the London Art fair and Miami Art. Having recently graduated from Camberwell College of Arts in Fine Art: painting, she has now gone on to study at the Royal College of Art and is currently on the graduate Diploma programme and will go on to complete the masters after this. Her work has reached online platforms such as Half of Venus art gallery and Horizon gallery and is continuing to work alongside Tanya Baxter for a future solo show in February.
