Rima Staines, a UK artist whose work straddles myth, magical realism and the folk arts. Her visual world is an umber and madder-infused chapel of misfits and magicians, story-rich and alchemical. Her paintings, which feel both ancient and familiar at once, have been exhibited and published internationally. In 2018 she was a finalist in the 'Best Artist' category of the World Fantasy awards.

Rima has a long-held fascination with the idea of the liminal - that which lies at the edge of culture and society as well as the literal boundaries between one place and another, both metaphorical and real - and with the power of art that comes from that place. Her work is a kind of “Iconography of the Otherworld”. She lives in the south of England.
