Ep 1 - Painting - Lottie Consalvo

FROM THE PAINTING COLLECTION

In our first episode, we visit the home and studio of Newcastle-based artist Lottie Consalvo.

Lottie's practice explores our invisible worlds - the unknown and the intangible, often drawing on feelings such as desire, longing, and loss. Through her diverse practice, Lottie has continued to examine these ideas using painting, performance, video, and sculpture.

While elements of Lottie's work touch on difficult subject matter, she is also a romantic and joyful artist whose intentional and philosophical engagement with the world flows between her personal and professional life.
