About

Uma Dehaan is a London-based painter and graduate of Central Saint Martins. Dehaan’s practice explores the emotional weight of domestic spaces through abstract mark-making, layered surfaces, and colour fields. Engaging with themes of presence, absence, and in-betweenness, her work evokes intimate yet unsettling environments that feel suspended in time.
