Amelia Stewart works across drawing, painting, sound and collaborative performance, using processes of translation and communication to examine how meaning shifts between sensory and symbolic forms.
Her practice centres on translating sound into image and back again, where authorship, identity and interpretation become unstable. Drawing acts as a key tool within this process, helping to work through auditory experience, emotional response and associated thought.

Rather than treating sound as fixed, Stewart approaches it as shaped by perception and open to change, placing perception alongside physical properties. Her experience of deafness and neurodivergence informs the conditions of making, shaping attention, limitation and adaptation within the work.

Through these processes, Stewart examines miscommunication, distortion and the structures that shape how meaning is produced and shared. Alongside her individual practice, she works as part of the collective imiita, extending these ideas into collaborative and performative contexts.
