LUCINDA LINDERMAN
"DIPPING INTO THE WASTE STREAM"
Presented on: Tuesday, Apr 3rd, 2018



Lucinda Linderman, a native to Chattanooga, Tennessee, is a recognized environmental artist and enviromental art curator living and working in Miami, Florida. She explains: "As consumers, we purchase, use, and throw things away, never thinking of the items again. Looking at this linear production, I collect industrial and post consumer packaging, which becomes the building blocks of my sculptures.

This material, disregarded by many, has its own history of travel from factory to store, being created to be thrown away. I highlight the inherent value, leaving traces of what was, transforming the material into something new, playful, through my hands adding value to these discarded materials."

Lucinda Linderman holds an MFA from the University of Miami in Sculpture and a B.A. in Biology. She has been a full time artist with works exhibited in juried shows since 2001.
