Show and Tell: Artists Talks, Lucy Austin 

Lucy Austins work is slow, fragile and is made from many layers over a long period of time. It is imbued with meaning such as memory, loss, vulnerability and identity. It is about living and what that feels like. There is something ancient about her work, which has a powerful dramatic and emotional presence’.

Through artists telling their stories, and acting as role models, Show & Tell aims to create a realistic idea of what it is to be a professional artist today. Concentrating on practical ways to sustain a practice, through good times and bad, success and disappointment, we ask experienced mid-career artists: how did you get where you are today and how do you survive as an artist?
