Artist Spotlight: Constance Regardsoe

Artist bio:

Constance Regardsoe is an emerging artist living in Reading. She was born in Preston, Lancashire and was always passionate about fine art, but as the first person in her family to attend university, was encouraged to pursue a traditional route. After gaining an English degree she moved to London and began a career in Higher Education, but realised the persistence and power of her passion for art, and decided to switch to working part time so she could devote more time, and began some part time study. The next two years were not without challenges, but over the course of 2020, she was selected for several major exhibitions, won the prestigious Bath Society of Arts Grand Prize and Young Artist Prize, and was signed by two private galleries. She has since moved to Reading which has enabled her to focus on art full time. Her work involves bodies in water, and the intense and intricate distortions captured in fleeting moments. She was inspired by the visual spectacles captured in her source images, and her respect and admiration for her models, frequently inspiring women in her network. Constance is dedicated to using art to support charity and supporting other emerging creatives as much as possible.
