I carve stone into fluid, tactile forms that invite touch and interaction, and build paintings in layers that echo traces of the past. I am interested in the connections we make, the things we carry from others and the subtle ways moments of exchange and influence can shape us. https://www.amandasumpter.co.uk/about daily 0.75 2026-03-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1630423796358-N133UOMC6M9XXSX1ZYTY/Amanda+Sumpter_32.jpg About https://www.amandasumpter.co.uk/contact daily 0.75 2024-09-11 https://www.amandasumpter.co.uk/carving daily 0.75 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/44c959d8-098f-443a-8bc6-2366bf2214f0/IMG_9028.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Held 2025, Welsh Slate and African Springstone, 12cm x 18cm x 15cm (H x W x D) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/882aaf9a-aa82-4baa-9316-736ef238fc2b/Amanda+Sumpter%2C+%27Surfacing+02%27%2C+African+serpentine+and+Welsh+slate%2C+40x15x18cm.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Surfacing 02 2023, Welsh Slate and African Serpentine, 18cm x 40cm x 15cm, sold https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/a02912c3-3ff0-4a55-9c32-91220f708571/IMG_1148+%281%29.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Held 02 2025, Welsh Slate and African Springstone,, 12cm x 18cm x 18cm, £650 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1c101bf5-576d-4575-9004-c11a2621dbca/IMG_0669.jpg Sculpture An act of remembering 2025, Welsh Slate and hatpin, 10cm x 38cm x 13cm, £750 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/68b138ba-49aa-455d-a271-df891eb152fd/IMG_1319.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Small pieces of a whole 2025, Welsh Slate and hatpin, 9cm x 18cm x 18cm, £650 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/2b8f6454-6b21-486a-b8dc-699f41c33811/IMG_1077.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Becoming 2025, Welsh Slate and African Serpentine, 8cm x 38cm x 19cm, £795 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/da704823-ef95-42e4-a5ad-2e1ff12677f3/Folds+1.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Setting your boundaries 2025, Welsh Slate and Alabaster, 12cm x 38cm x 21cm £895 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/8863042b-1f8f-4d33-ac9e-9a7542ff3a90/Transformation+2+ANDY+EDIT.jpeg Sculpture - Make it stand out The weight of small things 2025, Alabaster and Welsh Slate, 15cm x 34cm x 17cm , £900 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/6bedc8f5-2208-42d3-85b9-84181d8bbf65/IMG_2114+%282%29.jpg Sculpture - Make it stand out Fragment Series: Linger, Wend and Tine 2025, African Springstone.

Make it stand out I keep in the most precious corner of my head this preoccupation, series of drawings using printed fragments with tracing paper and graphite. My works on paper span expressive drawing, mark-making, collage, graphite rubbings, monoprints, and collographs. Many begin with discarded fragments from my father’s long abandoned shed - materials which, for me, are imbued with touch and memory. I repurpose and reimagine discarded papers from the shed floor, take rubbings from slate pieces lettercut with favourite sayings, and create monoprints from the tiniest fragments of hair and materials. I work in series, with each exploring how lives are remembered through touch, material presence, and the things we pass between us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629638921506-7T1QMQ4FOWSBRWI7OKGQ/IMG_2704.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Detail of Preoccupation series https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629638929785-PFGA48ACIJ5POTLOT97B/IMG_2744.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629639035569-CVK62LLZXAPB7PNXKYWO/IMG_2757.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629639122139-7GBWSPCP26L73W2YP947/IMG_3676.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629639032690-N2X0GTSIIKSXXOD94LUT/IMG_2755.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/541ea1ce-d2ae-42a9-842c-676ea0a3ff55/Keepsakes+3.JPG Works on paper - Make it stand out Keepsakes, series of monoprints using hair and metal fragments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/e6e66f63-f2e8-4088-9d87-ee3ec27d1cf5/IMG_8013.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Souvenir, series of collages with contact images and found papers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629639042367-0PFQUZJ6MR7CNZB6IDIN/IMG_2770.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/53d6c8da-67d5-407f-b6df-56bed371ce7b/IMG_6385.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Keepsakes, series of monoprints using hair and metal fragments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/9f3f5a55-4821-47b8-be03-875d179f59c1/IMG_8019.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Souvenir, series of collages with contact images and found papers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629638936719-T6881WXSND48XN1769BW/IMG_2746.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/4335ab9a-f815-42e8-896b-034e1402414b/Keepsakes+4+%282%29.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Keepsakes, series of monoprints using hair and metal fragments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/7d705832-846e-406d-926f-e440f19d8fb9/IMG_8014+%281%29.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Souvenir, series of collages with contact images and found papers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/1629639049420-NL1MGS0BH2WHRVGFZHSW/IMG_2772.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out My ordinary, series of collages with drawn and printed fragments, tape and resin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/e2c6aeb5-e219-4886-924b-ab5197dc19b1/Keepsakes+5+%282%29.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Keepsakes, series of monoprints using hair and metal fragments https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/5f2a175c-e5ca-477e-ad4e-329b058421f9/IMG_8012.jpg Works on paper - Make it stand out Souvenir, series of collages with contact images and found papers https://www.amandasumpter.co.uk/exhibitions daily 0.75 2026-01-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d9755d083c3880060b29bd8/30ac12a9-9557-4d76-a55a-cc759273d473/IMG_8925+%281%29.jpg Exhibitions 2025 Material and Maker at Gallery 57 - Echo, 2025, African Springstone and charred oak
