Remembered, imagined, or fragmented

Lucie Smith’s practice is rooted in an exploration of the cycles and relationships that characterise the human condition, with a particular focus on memory, empathy and storytelling. Within these interrogations lies a deep fascination with traces and the overlooked. 

Through a compulsive process of collecting, reproducing and curating archival material and objects, she brings together symbols that characterise a narrative which are remembered, imagined, or fragmented.

Works realise themselves through a range of mediums including intricate sculptures and immersive, cross-disciplinary installations, as well as paintings, photographs, stitch and paper-based works, drawings and poetic films.
