Drive Producer Bella Michie was joined with Sydney based Artist, Lisa Carrett to discuss her new exhibition titled, ‘Uncanny Archives’ making its debut at the Artsite Galleries.
Lisa Carrett’s work investigates how home is inextricably tied to the past and present, as memory informs individual perceptions of place. Lisa Carrett explores this concept through paintings as well sculpture, as she hopes to invoke a sense of familiarity through her depictions of classic Australian iconography. Through the use of two mediums, and polarising colour schemes Lisa Carrett adds a layer of complexity to the notion of nostalgia, illuminating how individuals can experience a sense of estrangement from places of their past.
Produced by Bella Michie, DRIVE, 2ser 107.5.
