Lottie Consalvo
If you're visiting the Auckland Art Fair make sure you check out the works of Lottie Consalvo.
Based in Australia Lottie showcases her works in New Zealand, New York, and Paris. Her evocative paintings delve into the elusive realms of the human psyche, exploring imagination, dreams, and memories within the context of reality.
Stylistically, Consalvo's art echoes the abstract expressionist tradition while conceptually aligning more closely with Surrealism in its exploration of dreams and past experiences.
Consalvo's artistic practice seeks to translate the overwhelming presence of thought and the profound impact of the mind on all living things into a visual language. She draws parallels between these psychological phenomena and the human connection to nature, desire, longing, loss, and the ungraspable.
Her paintings often feature monumental structures suspended in vast empty spaces, representing the physical manifestation of thought, imagination, memory, and psychological transitions between reality and fantasy.
Lottie's works have gained recognition in both public and private collections across Australasia.
