This vivid collection of drawings by Susie Hamilton, made between 2023 and 2025, captures the London Underground as both a real journey and a metaphorical transformation. This paperback presents a compelling new body of work by London-based artist Susie Hamilton, created on the London Underground between 2023 and 2025. Comprising 89 drawings, the book captures the shifting, solitary figures of Tube passengers. The artwork ranges from monochrome pen-and-pencil sketches in sketchbooks to colorful mixed-media works on paper, cardboard, and torn canvas scraps. The book includes a foreword by Eleanor Pinfield, Head of Art on the Underground, situating Hamilton's work within the Tube's long history of working with - and inspiring - artists. An in-depth interview with writer Amah-Rose Abrams explores Hamilton's making process, from site-responsive sketchbook works, to pieces later developed in her studio, while an extended essay by Dr Matthew Holman delves into the literary, poetic, and theological influences on her practice. A new text by the artist presents the Underground as a metaphor and place of metamorphosis in psychology, myth, poetry, and religion.
