Celia Hempton (b. 1982 Stroud, UK) is a British painter who has come to international recognition for her expressive paintings, which often involve negotiating feelings of discomfort in a world where screens have become more real than reality. Hempton has exhibited internationally and received her BFA from the Glasgow School of Art and her MA from the Royal College of Art and is a graduate of the British School at Rome. Her works are held in the Government Art Collection and the British Council Collection, among several others.
