Ithell Colquhoun

A Life Between Worlds: The Enigmatic Ithell Colquhoun Born in the distant landscapes of Shillong, Assam, British India, in 1906, Margaret Ithell Colquhoun embarked on a life that would defy easy categorization. Her early years were marked by a profound sense of displacement—a common experience for children of the Raj sent back to England for education. This initial severance from her birthplace instilled within her a lifelong fascination with liminal spaces, both geographical and psychological, which would deeply inform her artistic vision. Educated at Cheltenham Ladies’ College, she demonstrated an early inclination towards esoteric studies, particularly the Kabbalah and occultism—interests that blossomed alongside her burgeoning talent for art.
