Daisy Nutting: Sunday Garden

About the artist

Daisy Nutting is a London-based artist whose work examines the relationship between memory, storytelling, and land ownership. A graduate of Kingston School of Art and the Royal Drawing School’s postgraduate programme, her practice spans etching, drawing, and painting. Her work is held in the Royal Collection and the National Trust Collection, following residencies at the Hafod Estate, Dumfries House, and Borgo Pignano in Tuscany.

Nutting’s imagery documents moments of balance and friction within the natural world. These works arise from a specific impulse to connect with her surroundings while grappling with the fact that the land she depicts is not hers. By recording these landscapes, she suggests that memory serves as a form of possession—one that challenges capitalist ideas of accumulation and property. For Nutting, the act of remembering becomes a way to claim a site without physical proprietorship.

Her technical background includes time at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts and a fellowship at Bainbridge Print Studio. Nutting has exhibited widely in London, with recent group shows at Soho Revue and the London Original Print Fair at Somerset House. Her upcoming projects include exhibitions at Set Vauxhall and the Royal Drawing School in 2026. Through her consistent focus on the "overheard map" of her environment, Nutting continues to investigate how personal observation can rival formal notions of ownership.
