Isobel Lutz-Smith
Isobel Lutz-Smith’s artworks explore our relationship to the ideal and the real through systems and objects designed for the mass market. She is interested in how these are presented to us; separated from the process of making and embodying anticipated needs or aspirations. Her work contemplates how these forms author experience and allow us to measure ourselves relative to the body imagined. Her works are installations of objects and videos which uses the language of the mass market in alternative syntax, questioning veiled acts of making and fleshing out the shape, role and agenda of a universal body.
