Vegetable prints, acrylic and newsprint
Imaging corridor, Royal London Hospital
Georgie Hopton has created an installation featuring her signature vegetable prints and wall paintings for the Imaging Department at The Royal London Hospital.
Using vegetables, flowers and leaves grown in her garden Hopton creates these deceptively simple prints. Hopton’s work delights in the elemental tactile qualities of viscous glossy paint to create delicate childlike vegetable-stamped compositions that are both elegant and wry.

About the artist
Georgie Hopton is a British artist working across collage, printmaking, photography, sculpture and textiles. She graduated from Central Saint Martins in 1989 and now lives and works in London and New York State. Hopton makes art that is merged with life and not held apart: she also gardens, produces wallpaper, fabric and rugs, considering them natural extensions of her artistic practise. In 2007, Hopton was nominated for the Max Mara Art Prize for Women and has exhibited widely, participating in both solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally.
