Jamie-Lee Garner is an artist whose work emerges through a playful engagement with colour and material. Often working with recycled textiles as a way to reflect upon the relationship between her body, the environment and the materials at hand.

 

Through her work Jamie-Lee reflects on the flexibility of individual perception, memories, colour and material history. Crafting imagined landscapes that simultaneously enrapture and devour oneself, revealing bodies and animals within the terrain. 

 

Central to her practice is the exploration of the imagined and permeable threshold between the mind, body and the natural world. She is especially interested in the often binding experience of life in a female body, using her creative process to investigate women's labour as the foundation and supporting structure of human life.

 

Jamie-Lee received her Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Sydney in 2018.
