Kristen Lethem
Bio
Kristen Lethem’s artwork focuses on landscape and the exploration of patterns within the environment formed as a result of the interplay between topography, vegetation and by extension - shadow and light. Through the use of a restricted palette, these light and shadow patterns appear script like, coalescing into Lethem’s personal, visual language of the landscape.
Kristen is a Sydney based artist with a Bachelor of Art in Visual Communication and Design from Sydney College of the Arts ( University of Sydney and a Master of Fine Arts with a painting Major from University of NSW Art and Design.
