About

Horton is a 38 year-old artist living in the UK.
The largely self-taught practitioner, tired of the traditional presentation of taxidermy, lends the ancient art a surreal
and contemporary pop twist.

Horton’s approach to taxidermy has always set out to explore animals in a foreign environment from their original habitat.
The use of dyes and lighting allow a playful narrative to a medium that sometimes holds a macabre association.
It’s this juxtaposition of organic material with neon lighting
that has become her signature style.
