Mary Ramsden graduated this year from Edinburgh College of Art with a first class honours degree and will be exhibiting work with us from Autumn 2008 onwards. She had previously attended the Leith School of Art. Her work stood out whilst in Edinburgh and she won the Royal Scottish Academy Sir William Gillies Bequest, the George Jackson Hutchison Memorial Prize and the Andrew Grant Bequest Award.

'Every aspect of my current practice is a component of a larger on-going investigation. Through drawing, painting and text I attempt to manipulate the viewer's preconceptions of symbolism by forging a convincing visual language. I hope to achieve a semiotic trompe l'oeil raising questions about the fragility of the sign that ceases to be referent'.
