Georgia-May Travers Cook (b. 1995, London, UK)
Georgia-May Travers Cook’s paintings capture the tension between realism and the surreal, constructing narrative spaces that hover between the concrete and the imagined. Informed by literature, fiction, and her own writing practice, her works function as frameworks for storytelling—inviting viewers to enter, interpret, and recompose meaning. This openness transforms looking into an active dialogue, where the artist’s vision and the viewer’s imagination remain in constant exchange.
Cook received her BA in Fine Art & Art History from Goldsmiths College, University of London, in 2018, and completed a Foundation Diploma in Art & Design at City College, Brighton and Hove, in 2016. She has exhibited internationally, with recent presentations including Hauser & Wirth Somerset (UK, 2024), About Painting 2 at Rolando Anselmi (Rome, 2023), Artland Milano curated by Marta Orsola Sironi (Milan, 2023), A Gift to the Dark curated by Sayori Radda at Vinvin Vienna (2023), Cancer Season (London, 2023), and Stranger than Paradise with V.O. Curations (London, 2023).
Cook currently lives and works in London, UK.
