Love[f]Art #14 | Augusta Vinall Richardson

Hosted by Amanda Love, the LoveArt podcast brings listeners into direct conversation with contemporary artists, extending the work of the independent art advisory, LoveArt, based in Sydney, New York and Athens.The series draws from Love[f]Art, LoveArt’s ongoing program of intimate, in-conversation recordings with artists, originally conceived in 2020. Filmed in the most unlikely of settings—the guest powder room at the Love residence—the project strips things back to a one-to-one exchange, focusing on ideas, process and the conditions that shape contemporary practice.This episode features Augusta Vinall Richardson, a Melbourne based artist working with sheet and cast metals to make abstract composite sculpture. "The assemblage of my works, composed of separate, individual parts, reflects my philosophy: societies are formed through the coming together of distinct bodies—nature, buildings, animals, and people." - Richardson.Recorded in December 2024, at the time of the work’s installation, the conversation offers a direct insight into the thinking behind the piece, and the broader concerns that underpin her practice.Richardson is represented by The Commercial, Sydney.Additional information, including the video version of this podcast, is available here.
