About

Hayley Anderson is a visual artist who mainly works with printmaking. Her latest works combine lino printing and paper cut techniques to produce three-dimensional wall-mounted paper installations influenced by place and nature. Additionally, Hayley often incorporates elements of Scottish folklore and mythology into her works, reflecting her interest in history and tradition. This thematic choice pays homage to her heritage and allows her to connect contemporary audiences with timeless tales and cultural narratives.

Hayley is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Art and Social Practice at UHI Shetland. Her research centres on anthropology, cultural heritage, and indigenous craft practices. In her studies, she explores the intersection of art and community engagement, focusing on how traditional crafts can strengthen cultural identity and foster social cohesion.

Hayley runs her business, Buff and Blue Prints, from her home in Lossiemouth and conducts printmaking workshops throughout Scotland. Most recently, her work has been exhibited at the Kilo Gallery in Rovaniemi, Finland, and the American University in Dubai.
