Mel Booth

Mel Booth is an emerging artist living and working on Gadigal Land (Sydney, Australia). She is interested in the in-between: the beings and objects that don’t fit neatly into Western classification systems. Booth uses her practice to interrogate systems used to identify and categorise, such as scientific classification, gender, politics, nationhood, and how these systems affect her perspectives and relationships with her surrounding environment. Multidisciplinary and intuitive, her practice combines materials and methods in non-traditional and fluid ways, reflecting her explorations of self and perceived boundaries.
