Lucy Foster is an experimental lens-based artist residing in Naarm/Melbourne. Her practice explores the boundaries of photography through expanded photo techniques, collage and darkroom interventions. She has exhibited locally and internationally and works alongside other artists as a photographer. This merging of personal and professional practice strengthens a deep interest in the image and its capacity to shape experiences of time and memory. Working meditatively in the darkroom, Lucy employs techniques such as writing with light or masking out areas of exposure. This space of play welcomes unpredictability, allowing chance happenings to become as meaningful as any memorised or controlled gesture.
