Beth Simcock graduated from the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford in June of 2021 with first class honours. She is a current Artist in Residence at HQI Foundation, West London.

Beth Simcock is a painter and writer working across large-scale narrative paintings. Her practice is devoted to mythologies, both self-created and borrowed: from classics, art history, contemporary popular culture, and the online world.

Blushing girl-ish figures inhabit her landscapes-between-states. Fragments translated from ancient frescoes are painted over with beer cans and sweet wrappers, and decorated with glittery stickers to create colourful tapestries of parable and memory.
