About

Curious creatures and watchful birds inhabit a world of secret gardens and hidden places, a borderland between nature, myth, memory and dreams. 

Amanda Anderson’s vibrant mosaics draw inspiration from the natural world, both real and imagined, from half forgotten childhood tales and traditional mosaic motifs woven together with the formal concerns of line, balance and colour. 

She enriches intricately cut stained glass, ceramic pieces and pottery fragments with a charcoal cement, creating bold silhouettes and saturated hues, imbuing her mosaic’s whimsical style with a vivid and joyful energy.

Amanda Anderson was born in Stoke-on-Trent, in the Potteries, and grew up in Willenhall, in the Black Country, a historic industrial region of the English Midlands. She studied Fine Art, specialising in sculpture, at Liverpool School of Art and Design, and is now based in South Staffordshire.

As well as creating work for sale and exhibition, she has completed a number of public commissions in the UK and US.
