Stevie Fieldsend

Stevie Fieldsend’s work seeks to detail an emotional state – more a feeling or sensation/bodily memory of a past event. Fieldsend is interested in how to convey emotional realities about longing, grief and death. Central to these perceptions are the notions of the lived body and transference.

In working with materials that embody the process of transmutation such as molten glass, steel and charred wood, a type of performance takes place close to the furnace, and inside her body.

Stevie Fieldsend studied glass at Sydney College of the Arts and The Jam Factory Craft and Design Centre in Adelaide and from these two influences has worked, in both design and production as well as installation/sculpture. In recent years Fieldsend completed both a Master of Fine Art and a Master of Studio Arts at Sydney College of the Arts.

She has participated in solo and group exhibitions both nationally and internationally and has been the recipient of numerous art prizes. Her work can be found in numerous public and private collections, including the Artbank collection.

Stevie Fieldsend is represented by Artereal Gallery, Sydney.
