Millie Hornsby
BA Fine Art
Millie is a Norwich-based fine artist working primarily in oil paint. Her practice centers on the human body, with a focus on muscular physiques and anatomical structure. Through close observation, she examines the body as both subject and artwork, exploring the visual language of form, tension, and movement.
Her work is informed by an interest in discipline and the pursuit of physical perfection. By studying the body, Millie reflects on the dedication needed to build strength, drawing parallels with the patience and control inherent in painting. Working in oil, she builds layered surfaces to articulate light, weight, and texture, revealing both the power and vulnerability of the human form.
Millie’s paintings invite the viewer to reconsider the body as a constructed composition an interplay of line, balance, and mass positioned between strength and fragility.
