Camie Lyons

Australian Women Artists The podcastEp. 63 Camie Lyons  Camie Lyons is a Sydney-based contemporary artist whose multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, painting, and drawing.  Her creative approach is deeply informed by her background as a dancer, translating the rhythm and fluid lines of human movement into physical forms. Working primarily with bronze and charcoal, she often sources inspiration from the Australian landscape, using natural materials like eucalyptus branches to anchor her organic silhouettes.  Camie has received extensive academic training in Melbourne and Sydney, supplemented by international residencies in countries such as Sweden and Bulgaria. Her professional portfolio includes major commissions for prestigious brands like Tiffany & Co. and the Hilton Hotel, alongside numerous solo exhibitions across Australia and Asia.  Today, her work is held in prominent public and private collections globally, reflecting her status as a significant figure in the contemporary art world. We discussed the discipline of being a professional ballet dancer and her work as an artist and the fabulous influences of one over the other. How her work, despite being in the hard and heavy medium of bronze, is still very intuitive. Very little planning. I found that fascinating. We also talked about the random things that can happen in life and taking the opportunities they may present and the importance of risk and believing in your own process.  To hear our conversation, head to the link in my bio.  Camie (@camie.lyons) is represented by Australian Galleries (@australiangalleries) in Sydney and Melbourne   Images1 CL2 Girl is gone, 2025 bronze 98 x 85 x 513 Slow tumbling house 2025 bronze 60 x 54 x 494 Moving young to a new planet 2025 acrylic and pencil on linen5 Apple and pear 2019 bronze 14 x 14 x 14
