About
Born to Scottish parents, raised in Switzerland, trained in the Netherlands, Fiona McGuigan now resides in Seattle, WA, USA.
Her current work is about process and the abstracted industrial landscape. Driven by ideas and a process of observation and memorization, she deconstructs imagery and transforms the observed world into her own urban shorthand. The industrial landscape along the Duwamish River has inspired her work over the past 10 years.
McGuigan’s fine art practice has naturally progressed beyond the making of objects to include creating programs and spaces where creative people can congregate, learn, and exchange ideas. She believes that creativity and curiosity are essential to our daily lives and must be practiced daily.
In 2012 she co-created the Duwamish River Artist Residency, to explore Seattle’s industrial area and to create a space for artists to refresh their creative practice.
She’s always happy to talk about ideas and opportunities, you can reach her at fiona@fionamcguigan.com
