Biography
Shona Hardie is a Scottish muralist based in Leith, on the north-east edge of Edinburgh. Her practice spans mural painting, pyrography and illustration, with a recognisable floral and figurative vocabulary: stylised flowers in saturated flat colour, portraits and creatures entangled with vegetation, and compositions driven by bold colour.
Since the late 2010s she has worked across Edinburgh and Scotland on public, community and commercial commissions. Her murals punctuate the Old Town, Leith and the inner neighbourhoods of Dalry and Gorgie, where she frequently collaborates with the City of Edinburgh Council and Seedhead Arts.
Her work is rooted in place: she consults residents, traders and schools before painting, and weaves into her motifs references to the communities living around the wall — national flowers, neighbourhood emblems and portraits of locals.
