Artworks

Miriam Austin is an artist whose multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, installation, video and performance, exploring relationships between ritual, myth, ecological fragility and the politics of the body. Her current research follows rivers that run through landscapes affected in different ways by climate change, extractive industry and ecological degradation, seeking to weave narratives through these sites that draw attention to the psychic and material entanglements that shape our experience of threatened environments.

Austin graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Sculpture in 2012 and completed a PhD  at the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford in 2025. Over recent years she has shown work at venues including Modern Art Oxford; Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Wakefield, UK; Camden Art Centre, London; The Show Room, London; The ICA, London; Jupiter Woods, London; Gossamer Fog, London; Alma Zevi Gallery, Venice, Italy and Cripta 747, Turin, Italy. 

Austin's exhibition at the Gerald Moore Gallery, Alaria, ran from 28th April - 24th May 2025.
