Ellie Hoskins is an artist from North-West Cumbria, now based in Liverpool. Her work is a written and material response to the bleak, mundane and existentially absurd realities of being alive in contemporary Britain. Beginning with an observation, an obsession or a feeling, she wrestles with and builds upon a train of thought until it feels like something worth sharing. The results are often multimedia installations that sit somewhere between a diary entry and a cartoon fever dream; between tragedy and comedy; between harsh truth, and playful fiction.

Alive in a world of car parks, armed with an air fryer and a fake baby (2026)
Ellie Hoskins combines sculpture, video, text and sound to create installations that blend personal memories, the excesses of internet culture and ordinary observations into immersive fictional worlds. Balancing humour with melancholy, her work finds unexpected emotion in the overlooked details of everyday contemporary life.
