Liz Crichton is an interdisciplinary artist and curator whose work explores our hopes, fears, choices, chances and sense of identity. Inspiration comes from her surroundings, the environment and the people she encounters. Working with a variety of media and in participation with the public, her work often contrasts the power of the natural elements with the fragility and temporary nature of life and the futility of human endeavours and seeks to inspire others to step out beyond what they know for certain.
Approaching middle age, she developed a passion for nature, creativity and spirituality. Now in possession of a first-class degree in Fine Art from the University of Highlands and Islands, a master’s in Theology Imagination and Arts from the University of St Andrews, and an MA in Art and Social Practice, she has exhibited at the Royal Academy in Edinburgh and GoMA in Glasgow, Canada, Finland and Africa. She is excited by opportunities to bring people together, to build relationships and explore, in ways that create liminal spaces where for a short time perhaps the unimaginable becomes possible.
She is an Ambassador for Outside In, curator of the Telos Box and works for a gallery in Perthshire.
