hello, I am Lucy Barfoot. I am living in Bristol, and have done since graduating in 2008 with a fine art degree from the university college of creative arts in farnham, surrey fuccs uccs.
I create a large variety of work, but my love is within sculpture-installation. i enjoy making stuff from ready-made stuff - apples, syrup, lists, petals. I like to mak tiny sculptures, sew little lines onto paper, make ink and PVA moulds, and blind draw.
The word ‘quirky’ is often used to describe my art - i’m not sure if i like that or no, but it fits. i combine process-led, repetitive actions with a satisfying, sensual aesthetic. i’m greatly attracted to objects, i feel a compulsion for things, and i listen to my intuition - this is my starting poing.
my work is mostly ephemeral and i like to mix the natural with the man made man-made
