Lisa Carrett
Lisa Carrett is a recent graduate of UNSW Art and Design (BFA Honours 2019) and has been a finalist in the 2020 Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize, the 2020 & 2019 Fishers Ghost Prize, the TWT Excellence Prize (2018) and The Young Archie, AGNSW in 2013.
Lisa Carrett is a young contemporary, Sydney based emerging artist. Born in country Narrabri before moving to Goulburn and later Sydney.
Carrett´s painting practice investigates the duplicity of the Australian home, playfully engaging with composition and colour, Lisa´s work moves between intimate descriptions of a homes exterior and the vast, uncharted territories of the broader Australian landscape.
She seeks to evoke both nostalgia and familiarity; yet, through what Carrett describes as, the uncanny archives, she is simultaneously referencing darker histories.
