Shepperton is a village and a parish in the Staines district, Middlesex. The village stands on the river Thames, and was known at Domesday, as Scepertone. Ambrose’s work is inspired by her surrounding environment and the thrill of ‘the find’. Her interest in history, no matter how contemporary largely stems from finding objects of significance, which may have been left disused or discarded. Her work is in private collections across Middlesex.
