My name is Sophia Kingsbury.
I was born in Aarhus, Denmark in 1996 to Lesley Holst and Jonathan Kingsbury. My mother is Danish, my father is from New Zealand. I have no memory of living in either country, having instead been raised in Malawi and Mozambique over 15 years.
A favourite quote of mine by Walt Whitman: "I am large, I contain multitudes."
I am curious about the stories that surround artistic production; what prompted the artist to create the works, what about their lives formed their opinions and histories which are reflected in their artistic processes. The stories in the artworks themselves fascinate me, which is why I hold clear preference for otherworldly scenes and creatures in artworks – from the depictions of mythological subjects in oils by J. M. W. Turner to modern day concept art for film and video games.
