Eleanor is an English-Dutch artist born and raised in London. She graduated with a Masters in Fine Art Printmaking from the Royal College of Art in 2011. She now lives and works between Athens (Greece) and London. Geometry, pattern and structure found within architecture and foliage are all prevailing themes within her work which she explores through a variety of mediums such as screen printing, digital drawing, gouache paint, cyanotype and collage.

After completing a residency in Greece in 2016, her practice was greatly inspired by the city of Athens and its modernist and Art Deco architecture. By isolating shapes found in, for instance, Art Deco metalwork, and reimaging these forms, she explores and deconstructs the fabric of the city. The strong Athenian light gives a sun kissed appearance to the place. The vivid sunset skies and surrounding Aegean sea have all contributed to her vibrant colour palette, where colours and gradient blends interact with one another and create a sense of movement within the work.

In addition to her smaller scale practice, she undertakes large scale public commissions. In 2017 she completed her first major public commission ‘Undulations’ for the Crown Estate, made up of thousands of laser cut pieces of metal, which can be found just off Piccadilly Circus on Sherwood Street W1. She has also been commissioned by the Bow Arts Trust to work on several public commissions in schools across London.

She has founded a screen printing studio; Kypseli Print Studio, (10 Sporadon, Athens) which is open to the local and international artist community, providing educational workshops and artist residencies.
