Master of Fine Art School of Fine Art

Lilian Evans

(she/her)

Evans’ transdisciplinary practice is characterised by her sensual exploration into the expanded field of painting, confronting the medium which she finds herself monotonously committed to. Through the physical manipulation of waste materials, she constructs large-scale draped formations which interrogate and penetrate the medium.

Revolving around her methodology of desire, Evans’ practice sits in the space between wanting and possessing as she seeks to express her obsessive desire for the side of a lorry.

Her works, constructed with intuition, compulsion, and lust, are in essence, desire made manifest.

Lilian Evans, is a UK-born artist currently based in Glasgow, with a Master of Fine Art from The Glasgow School of Art after graduating from Loughborough University with a First Class Honours in Fine Art.

Key awards/exhibitions include: The RSA David Michie Travel Award 2025, a place in my heart (solo exhibition at The Pipe Factory, Glasgow, 2024), The lover (solo exhibition at Beacon Arts Centre, Greenock, 2025), and I DARE YOU TO LOVE ME (solo exhibition at Strange Field, Glasgow, 2025)
