Mia Shattock is a painter from Dublin, Ireland, interested in how film narratives permeate our understanding of reality and how media imagery moulds our sense of self in the digital age.

Her large scale oil paintings capture the unseen elements of media portrayal. She uses a monochrome palette, building some up in full colour glazes to exude a dreamlike quality, or leaving the underpainting as its final form.

The work dismantles ideas of hyperreality, prompting viewers to acknowledge the pervasive presence of media constructs, initiating a dialogue between film and philosophy and unravelling the intricacies of human emotion and perception as they intersect with cinema.
