Remembered, imagined, or fragmented

Lucie Smith (she/her) is a conceptual artist based in Southampton. Through sculpture, installation, drawing and lens-based media she explores the human condition from both a personal and collective perspective. It is her belief that we must draw attention to what came before in order to situate ourselves within the present.

Within her practice, raw and repurposed artefacts and fibres become entwined, stitching together narratives of memory, loss and interconnectedness. As part of her current postgraduate project, ongoing works have focused on uncovering lost female voices and experiences within the historical record.

Alongside her arts practice, Lucie works as a self-employed arts educator and producer, working with communities and individuals as well as facilitating on behalf of organisations in Southampton and beyond.

Lucie is currently studying an MA in Contemporary Art and Archaeology with the University of the Highlands and Islands, Orkney. She also holds a studio at The Arches.
