Mia Middleton

Mia Middleton (b. 1988) is a Sydney based artist, currently working in Portugal, whose pictorial works explore interiority, memory and evocation. Middleton’s small-scale paintings capture a tension and threshold between conscious and subconscious, desire and aversion, reality and fantasy. In these intimate freeze-frames, ephemeral moments are stripped of their context and suspended in time, intimating a narrative without creating one and inviting viewers into a psychological framework of uncertainty and discovery. Mia Middleton has exhibited widely in Australia and abroad, most recently with PPP London, Cob Gallery London, No Gallery NYC, Like a Little Disaster Italy and Haydens Melbourne. In 2022 she completed a residency at PM/AM London and is currently preparing for her forthcoming solo exhibition at Roberts Projects LA.
