Gabrielle de Glatigny moved back to Cornwall after following her husband's career as a fighter pilot around the UK and Canada. With an HND in Photography and a BA in Art History, she has a studio at The Old Bakery Studios in Truro.

She is a visual and portrait artist. Processes of transition, stemming partly from a life of many moves and a mixed cultural heritage, are central to her work.

She has exhibited extensively in Canada.
