Tracey Deep

Australian Women Artists The podcast Ep 67 Tracey Deep For over twenty years, Tracey Deep has been transforming forgotten remnants of the natural world—from dried botanicals to recycled organic and industrial materials—into captivating, tactile sculptures.  Her art celebrates the regenerative power of the earth through the art of what’s been called intentional imperfection.  Today her work spans gallery exhibitions, immersive installations and major public artworks across Australia. Whether delicate and intimate or monumental in scale, her sculptures invite us to slow down and reconnect with the natural world.  But I think the best description of Tracey is... a creative adventurer, a biology enthusiast, and magical botanical sculptor. “My passion for working with nature, my love for art has been the inspiration behind where I am today. Mother nature is my teacher, creating floralsculpture installations over decades has been the most inspiring tool in training my eye to assemble unique forms, patterns, shapes & tones together to create “living art”.” Tracey Deep We had a wonderful conversation as, amongst many things, we discussed her creative journey, her fabulous (and random) gathering process, and her devotion to protecting our land and environment.Tracey is represented by Saint Cloche Galleries (@saint_cloche) Head to the link in my bio to hear our conversation or go to wherever you find your podcasts.  Images of Tracey and her work were supplied by the artist
