Pandora Covell (b. 2000, London) is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in London. Painting is at the heart of her process, but she combines a multitude of processes thus refusing to limit herself to any single medium. Her visual language surfaces through a fusion of abstract elements, micro-narratives, and biomorphic forms. Covell creates organised chaos that invites viewers to navigate through a multitude of visual stimuli. Covell earned a Master’s in Painting from the Royal College of Art, London, in 2023 after receiving a BA in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Arts in 2022.

My work starts with paying attention. I notice patterns, materials, and fragments of the everyday- things that feel charged, even if they’re ordinary. Collecting these pieces is part of the process, but the real work happens when I bring them into conversation with each other.

Painting and sculpture are the main ways I do this. I move between them fluidly, letting one form suggest the next. I like materials that don’t quite match, organic textures against synthetic ones, hand-drawn marks beside industrial surfaces. When they come together, they create frictions and overlaps that open space for new meaning.

I don’t see my work as fixed objects so much as stages in a larger cycle. Sketchbooks, collections, and finished pieces all feed into each other. Each step is both an experiment and a record of where I’ve been.

At its core, my practice is about building connections between what I notice, what I collect, and what I make. The work is open-ended, adapting with my process, but always carrying traces of where it began.
