Eva Gold (b. 1994, Manchester) is a British visual artist whose practice spans sculpture, drawing, and moving image. Her work is united by a cinematic sensibility and a precise, often fetishistic use of materials—bone, steel, carved soap, leather, vulcanised rubber—arranged to evoke tension, intimacy, and unease. Often suggesting fragmented narratives or withheld scenes, Gold invites the viewer to consider what lies just beyond the frame, conjuring a sense of illicitness or latent threat.
