Betsy Falco

Betsy Falco is a multidisciplinary artist working between the Fenland of England and Chicago, Illinois. Her illustrations celebrate memory and the personal archives of people’s lives. Inspired by a love of trinket collections, vintage editorial archives of food and furniture advertisements, and the tiny plastic treasures of her childhood, Betsy’s work encapsulates the complexities of individuals through a record of the items they surround themselves with. She is proud of her work within the autistic community, where she creates artwork to better highlight the experience of being an autistic individual within the arts.

She has previously worked with Harper Collins, Dzanc Publishing, Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place, Penguin Random House, Universal Music Publishing Group, and Shania Twain. A dream project of hers would be to illustrate the contents of Gillian Anderson’s bedside table, or Marina Abramović’s handbag.
