Where do her works really begin?
“I work mostly with food, specifically fruits and vegetables, so when I think about where my work begins, I find myself reflecting upon the seeds, soil, rain, and sun. My work really begins where these elements collide to create the food that we eat. When I think about where my work begins, I also think about the labour that goes into growing, cultivating, transporting and selling these foods. All these steps are foundational; they allow me to do the work that I do. When I begin my work, it has already been in the making for many months."

Récemment exposé·e chez Produit Rien et à la FoFA Gallery, iel a aussi assuré le commissariat des projets Filaments et Goldenrod.

Sa pratique allie sculpture et performance pour explorer les liens entre l’agriculture, le corps et l’environnement. Entre textiles en cuir de fruits et sculptures en bronze, Lucy fait osciller permanence et éphémérité, conservation et décomposition. Cette transformation du fruit fait écho au corps et souligne notre parenté avec le monde non humain.

𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝗚𝗶𝗹𝗹 (@_lucegill) prendra le contrôle du compte Instagram de artch demain, le samedi 18 juillet.

⤷ 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘇-𝘃𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 pour un aperçu de sa pratique et découvrez ses œuvres au festival artch du 𝟭𝟱 𝗮𝘂 𝟭𝟴 𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗿𝗲 𝗮̀ 𝗘𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻.

— 𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝗚𝗶𝗹𝗹 is an emerging multidisciplinary artist and curator from unceded Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh territories (Vancouver), now based in Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang (Montréal). Recently exhibiting at Produit Rien and FoFA Gallery, they also curated the projects Filaments and Goldenrod.

Combining sculpture and performance, Lucy explores the connections between agriculture, the body, and the environment. Contrasting fruit-leather textiles with bronze sculptures, they trace the shift between permanence and ephemerality, preservation and decay. This transformation of fruit mirrors the body, emphasizing our kinship to the more-than-human world.

𝗟𝘂𝗰𝘆 𝗚𝗶𝗹𝗹 (@_lucegill) will take over artch’s Instagram account tomorrow, on Saturday, July 18.

𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐲 𝐆𝐢𝐥𝐥 ( @_lucegill )

« [...] This meditation on sensation and life continues in Lucy Gill’s work, through a trifecta of fruit peels, pulp and fruit leather. These works tenders a conversation of death, which is softened by the possibility of regeneration. Depicted through post mortem visual motifs—a body draped in fruit leather, a curtain of honeyed lit spirals, and videoed skin revealing ruptures—death is sweetened into something more open and permeable, rather than sealed or final. [...] »

- Jega Delisca

𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐞-𝐒𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞́𝐞 and 𝐋𝐮𝐜𝐲 𝐆𝐢𝐥𝐥 will be in attendance on Saturday 20 June at 2 pm to deliver an Artist Talk.

“In working with the apple’s temporality, Josh and Lucy draw our attention to its attendant possibilities and realities: of stickiness, of deepening hue, of sustenance to be shared, of tomorrow, of next year. (Of an end, maybe: eaten, moth-nibbled, redistributed, decomposed.)” - Hannah Ferguson @hannah___ferg

“En travaillant avec la temporalité de la pomme, Josh et Lucy attirent notre attention sur ses possibilités concomitantes, sur ses réalités : sa capacité d’adhérence, l’approfondissement de sa teinte, sa capacité d’être partagé, son lendemain, son cycle de vie. (D’une fin, peut-être : mangée, mitée, redistribuée, décomposée.) - Traduction par Hannah Blair @lowbrowprophet

With our upcoming Volume 4 launch in Toronto, we wanted to highlight another featured artist from the issue. Lucy Gill’s practice combines references to agriculture, the body, and the environment to demonstrate their interconnectedness and inseparability. They explore these themes by creating fruit leather textiles from dehydrated fruits and vegetables, and through sculptures cast in bronze.

We look closely at Gill’s recent performative work “Untitled (wading/shedding)” in an essay by @daisy_____d featured in Volume 04. Photography by @honesteds
