Her multidisciplinary practice spans painting, printmaking and installation, using layered translucent and opaque pigments to construct fragmented, pattern-filled spaces where figures dissolve into fabrics and interiors. Bodies intermittently emerge through glimpses of a hand, a shoe or a gesture, creating shifting compositions that destabilise perception and blur distinctions between figure and ground, reality and illusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTilson studied at Central Saint Martins, the Slade School of Fine Art, graduating with a BA in 2018, and later completed The Drawing Year at the Royal Drawing School in 2021.
