Lottie Consalvo

Australian Women Artists The podcast Ep. 33 Lottie Consalvo  Lottie Consalvo is one of Australia's most thought-provoking contemporary artists.  Through her abstract paintings, sculptures, video and performance works, she transcends the boundaries of the visible and tangible, pushing into the mind's capacity to explore the unbound possibilities of our existence and what lies beyond.  Lottie challenges conventional notions of reality and urges us to embrace what is unseen and unknown. She explores what she calls "the invisible world"—the realm of thought, imagination, dreams, and psychological states that exist beyond the tangible. She’s had 19 solo shows and countless more group exhibitions and 15 performance-based works. In 2023 she was named as one of Australia’s 100 most collectable artists. She recently had her first solo show with her new gallery, Nanda Hobbs, and in 2025 she won the Muswellbrook Art Prize and was a finalist in the Mosman Art Prize.Head to the link in my bio to have a listen to our conversation.   Images (most of which are referred to in our conversation): 1.   Portrait by Ben Adams2.   Bouquet of hope 2025, acrylic on linen, 180x120cm3.   Do You Remember The Roses 2021, performance documentation4.   In Awe 2024, acrylic on hardboard, 160x140cm 5.   Like a bell under water 2025, Single-channel video6.   Name-less (V) 2025, acrylic on archival paper, 59.4x42cm7.   RaRa 2025, acrylic on hardboard, 200x120cm8.   Sentimental 2025, acrylic on linen, 168x137cm
