Ep.276 Louise Duggan - Ministry of Arts Podcast

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Louise Duggan (@louisedugganartist)

 

Louise Duggan is a Chichester-based multidisciplinary artist whose work is a journey of discovery. After graduating from Leicester University in 1996 with a BA (Hons) in Art and Design, Louise embarked on a successful career in high-end interior design. She worked throughout London before relocating to Dubai, where she spent 23 years designing and producing bespoke artworks for prestigious clients. Her work is featured in many of Dubai’s five-star hotels, including a commission of nine paintings for the world’s first 7-star hotel, the Burj Al Arab.

 

Her abstract human figures and bold compositions express ideas rather than subjects, inviting viewers to engage with the emotional and subconscious layers of her art.

Louise challenges her own subconscious beliefs through both therapy and her art, capturing and documenting this transformative journey. Her work reflects self-exploration, a medium through which she confronts and evolves her inner world.

 

In addition to her artistic practice, Louise currently runs Ophelia Art Consultancy LTD, with offices in the UK and Dubai, and the Sussex Creative Art Network CIC (Chichester CAN).
