About

Lindsey Lavender is an Edinburgh based, award winning artist and maintains a busy schedule of exhibiting work nationwide.  Her work is represented in both public and private art collections.  Lindsey was originally trained and practised as an architect; this background has gifted her with a passion for the built environment, the buildings and the spaces in between.

Drawn to structural elements, points of transition and thresholds, Lindsey is interested in the transformative effect of light on essential elements upon which we tend not to focus.  The pieces exhibited are typical of her current practice, focussing the viewer’s attention on the interplay of light with the structure and often treating other elements of the composition in a more abstract way.

Lindsey’s work has been described as having a sense of narrative and an atmosphere of calm which draws the viewer in. She explores the rhythm of light and shade, often on the seemingly ordinary; showing the everyday in a new light.
