Harriet Mena Hill studied Fine Art at Camberwell in the 1980’s and has pursued a career in painting centred on the memory of place, both real and imagined. Since 2018 Hill’s work has focused on the regeneration of a housing estate in South East London creating the ‘Aylesbury Fragment’ series of paintings on salvaged demolition concrete. Work from the ‘Fragment’ series was selected for the John Moores Painting Prize 2023 and she was awarded an inaugural Judith Tucker Memorial Prize at the Contemporary British Painting exhibition 2024.
