Olivia Arnold is a multidisciplinary artist working on Gadigal and Cammeraygal land. Since graduating with a BFA (printmaking), and MFA (drawing) from the National Art School, Arnold has developed a practice that has a strong focus on materiality. Meditative mark making with pencil and thread connects to her process driven background in printmaking, and continued exploration of drawing.

Arnold’s work is primarily site specific; in that she engages with and observes the structural and ephemeral elements within her surroundings. By documenting architecture, interior space, and the changing light within these scenes, Arnold situates her body and perspective within the work. This allows a practice that fully immerses her in the act of looking.
