Each of Chloe Sells' works starts life as a simple photograph, created with her large format camera in Botswana, and is later transformed in her studio in London with darkroom manipulations and spontaneous experimentation. The resulting unique, technicolour, dreamlike images are brought together in the artist’s first innovative book, Swamp.

Born in Aspen, Colorado, Sells graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2000 with a Bachelors degree in Fine Art, and gained her Masters in Fine Art from Central St. Martins in 2011. She currently lives and works between London and Maun, Botswana. The first solo exhibition of her work was held at Michael Hoppen Gallery, London in 2013.
