About Lucinda Brash

Awards

Lucinda creates unique artwork in a diverse range of media, specialising in sculpture and ceramics.


Lucinda's work reflects her deep love of animals, birds and the natural world. At times, her work can be read on both a literal and a symbolic level.  Many of her pieces capture a moment of connection - between species, forms, or characters.  They often articulate a feel or mood - whimsical, fun, uplifting or contemplative. Some works express a striving or struggle but always with an element of hope, capturing the poignancy and vulnerability of life, with an underlying optimism. 

 

Lucinda works in a variety of media and loves to experiment. However, she especially loves the immediacy of working with clay - either fired, or cast into something else such as bronze, plaster or glass.

​

Lucinda works at Far Canal Studio in Elwood.
