Lucienne Cole

London
Artist working with Drawing / Print / Performance / Photography / Collage / Assemblage / Dance / Music /

My art practice is rooted in popular culture and has encompassed Performance, Video, Photography, Drawing/Painting, Print and Collage, reflecting and highlighting the slippages between fantasy and reality in everyday life. I also DJ, both in an Art Context and club-nights. My playing of records has been described as "a secular activity”.

Brian Eno said- “POP is about creating new and imaginary worlds and inviting people to join them”- I think that’s more or less what I do with my work, partularly with my Performances:  "Cole explores art as a form of entertainment and celebration, often engaging people in public spaces where a group of people or a community become the process of the work, allowing her practice to operate in multiple contexts. There is a collective association , where everyone can meet on the same plane through combining nostalgia and familiarity with a do it yourself attitude and aesthetic".

In recent years I have returned to Drawing which has become increasingly important and I have begun screenprinting on paper and fabric. My ventures across media constantly inform each other and I have become particularly interested in colour, pattern and movement and their relationship with music, in creating harmony and rhythm, fusing my interests and taking inspiration from architecture, interiors, objects, textiles, fashion history, nature, dance and music. I am interested in the idea of the ‘Gesamtkunstwerk’, (complete work), where architecture, interiors and clothes, represent a person’s identity.
