Chloe Marrs is an artist from Norwich who grew up as the eldest child in a military family. With no siblings or other children around, Chloe relied heavily on her imagination, immersing herself in a world of imaginary play, which nurtured her creativity from an early age. She first realized she wanted to be an artist at the age of 20 while pursuing a Fine Art degree. Initially drawn to Graphic Design and antique paper ephemera, her passion evolved into a love for collage, digital art, and moving images, blending commercial graphics with fine art principles. Chloe's formal education includes art GCSEs and two years of studying Graphic Design in college. One of her first significant art experiences was participating in local youth theatre projects, which influenced her development as a visual artist, particularly in costume/set design and prop making. Currently, Chloe's artistic style is in a transitional phase as she experiments with new techniques, but she consistently aims to infuse a dream-like quality into her work. Her themes often revolve around narrative and storytelling, using collage, digital art, printmaking, and 2D animation. Her creative process begins with researching and collating images and references, followed by composition and fine-tuning details. Films, stories, found images, and paper ephemera serve as her primary sources of inspiration. One of Chloe's biggest challenges is knowing when to call a piece finished. Listening to Trip Hop music helps her during her creative process. She is proud of being self-taught in most of her creative disciplines, allowing her to develop unique hybrid techniques. Chloe was invited to join Evolving Canvases, where she participated in two significant exhibitions: one at Bluey Bluey Gallery and another at the Bishop Gardens. These experiences were invaluable in developing her practice and showcasing her work. Her short-term goal is to continue evolving her practice and developing a body of work that represents her artistic identity, and her long-term goal is to sustain a career that continuously exercises her creativity. Chloe hopes that people can draw their own conclusions from her art and find introspective escapism. Her biggest artistic influence is Terry Gilliam, during the Monty Python’s Flying Circus era. Her favourite artists include George Tooker, M.C. Escher, Paul Delvaux, and Roland Topor.
