Anthea Hamilton

Her exhibitions have included Sorry I'm Late at Firstsite. In 2017 she became the first black woman to be awarded a commission to create a work for Tate Britain's Duveen Galleries, and according to Alex Farquharson, Tate Britain's director, Hamilton has made a "unique contribution to British and international art with her visually playful and thoughtful works". Her sculptures feature collage-like images which reuse images from her previous works.

Hamilton was born in 1978 in London, where she lives and works. She expressed no interest in becoming an artist as a child and she told her mother at an early age that she wanted to be an accountant, because of her love for maths.
