Lucy Goosey Feminist Art Collective

Lucy Goosey Feminist Art Collective is a fluctuating group of around 12 artists who create from within a feminist context. Lucy Goosey both describes the Collective’s low-pressure approach, and names its shared Muse. Formed in 2019, the Collective brings together women and gender-diverse creatives living in the north of Melbourne/Naarm and surrounds. 

Member artists are both emerging and established, and encompass all media, all abilities, and a variety of interests. The Collective provides mutual support and advice, encourages creative practice, and champions the participation of women and gender-diverse artists in the community. It aims to both preserve the past and expand the future of women’s art.

Members use their collected strength and grassroots knowledge to empower women and gender-diverse artists, develop a culture of activism, heal their surroundings, and create change in the wider world.

Lucy Goosey Feminist Art Collective’s inaugural show, curated by erincox, was held at NOIR Darkroom in Coburg, in January 2021. Since then, it has gone on to present multiple shows throughout Melbourne, and hold a residency at Incube8r in Fitzroy. The Collective’s current intentions include expanding membership, and spreading its activism further afield.
