The Venice Biennale, often regarded as the “Olympics of the art world,” holds a long-standing history of propelling artists to international acclaim and recognition. Exhibiting at this esteemed event presents a significant opportunity for artists, providing them with unparalleled exposure and the chance to have their work witnessed by influential figures within the global art community.Ella Squirrell’s inclusion in the Dorset Pavilion at the Venice Biennale is a testament to her exceptional talent and the captivating nature of her multidisciplinary works. Her paintings, encompassing a range of subjects from still lifes to intimate portraits, are characterized by a visceral tactility and expressive brushstrokes that capture not only the visual but also the emotional essence of her subjects.

The Biennale’s diverse exhibition model, which includes national pavilions and independently organized collateral events, creates a unique dialogue and a stunning portfolio of the world’s cultures and preoccupations. The Dorset Pavilion, curated by Sophie Molins, will showcase the artistic flair of Dorset, bringing the county’s talents to the international stage.Ella Squirrell’s participation in this prestigious event marks a significant milestone in her artistic journey and solidifies her position as an emerging talent to watch. Her inclusion in the Dorset Pavilion not only celebrates her individual achievements but also highlights the vibrant artistic community of Dorset and its contribution to the global art scene.

At New Blood Art, we are honored to have supported her artistic endeavors from the early stages of her career.
