about

Lilly , she/her

b. 1993, boorloo

I am an emerging artist and architectural graduate living and working on Wurundjeri land in Naarm. I studied at the Queensland College of Art in Meanjin, and completed my architectural education at the Queensland University of Technology.

My practice is self guided. I construct realities in my paintings using objects found in op shops, second-hand markets, hidden in cupboards in my family home, or from scenes in the background of childhood photographs. I want my work to tell stories. I want to explore themes of identity, memory, desire and worship. I want my paintings to ask questions. Mostly I just want to paint.
