Artists

Poppy Maguire

Poppy Maguire is an artist working in multiple mediums, including photography, printing, 3D paper modelling, textiles and water colours. Through her work she explores her own identity and her love of kickboxing, as well as the people most important within her life, including family members and her favourite pop stars.

Poppy’s images are entirely self-produced, from set design, location scouting, costume, pose, choice of camera and equipment, digital manipulation or analogue processing.

Poppy is working towards her Silver Arts Award.

I love art so much, since I was a kid. I do photography and fashion at Venture Arts. I make my own magazines. Cool. Smart. Funny. I do like a bit of pranks. Clever. That’s me.
