Lucy Sparks
Sparks describes her practice as occurring in two realms: out in the everyday world, the other inside her studio. It's this contrast that allows her to work at the most interesting intersections of 'intention and chance, control and coincidence'. Often incorporating familiar household objects and visceral materials, Sparks plays an alluring visual game with her viewers. Her time spent between Essex and California has informed her aesthetic approach as she plays between the real and imagined. After photographing objects for many years, Sparks is now shifting her practice to people. Also upcoming in 2023 is a solo show. lucy-sparks.com
