Lucia Dohrmann is an early career artist living and working in Adelaide/Tarndanya, graduating from Adelaide Central School of Art with a Bachelor of Visual Art (Honours) in 2017. Lucia’s work is held in a number of private collections and has been exhibited nationally, in solo exhibitions such as Visible Silence, West Gallery Thebarton (2020); and group exhibitions including Pliable Planes, UNSW Galleries (2022); and Radical Textiles, Art Gallery of South Australia (2024).
Lucia’s practice centres on the intersections between pattern and repetition, textile processes and mathematics, within the fields of painting and textiles. Lucia’s work primarily focuses on the materials used and the time-intensive processes of unpicking and reconstructing that she employs. Her works make visible the materiality and physical construction of her chosen ground, painters’ canvas: a pliable grid of woven threads.
