About

Olivia Concetta Lennon’s practice spans painting, installation, and performance. While each body of work is grounded in a distinct area of research, her projects make perceptible that which resists visibility. Her works often play with with ancient things, whether its archaeology, mythology or etymology, and often function as oblique political critiques. With each new inquiry, Lennon adopts new techniques and materials, allowing form to emerge in response to concept. Her practice is defined by a persistent negotiation between the immaterial forces she studies and the physical labour of their articulation. She is currently also collaborating with architect and artist Jan van Schaik on The Red Box, an ongoing investigation into spatial orientation, the personality of objects, and architectural form.

Lennon currently lives and works in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia), on lands unseeded by the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung Peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nation.
