Working in oil and collage Margot Bandola’s expressionistic painting explores the absurd and unfathomable - providing a news bulletin from a shrouded ether world. Peppered with nocturnal characters emerging from the subconscious her paintings evolve twilight darknesses to reveal a pertinent fact ; everyone plays a role in the somnambulist state. Using colour, rhythm and texture she dynamically juxtaposes the savage and wry revealing the inner and outer space in the cerebellum jungle from a feminist point of view.

Margot Bandola studied painting at Bristol (B.A Fine Art), followed by a Post grad Diploma at the National Film School.

She worked for a number of years in the film industry, whilst showing in galleries in Britain and France. Solo and group shows include Royal College of Arts, Royal Academy, Turner Contemporary, Twenty Twenty Gallery, Pie Factory Gallery (Solo show, October 2026).
