Erin Linhart is an emerging visual artist and art facilitator based in lutruwita, Tasmania. Her practice questions and investigates the human condition within built and natural environments where she searches for links between self and community to navigate a universal connection and embrace difference.

Drawing from observation and collection; her multidisciplinary research and processed-based practice oscillates between the physical and ephemeral response to cultural, environmental and personal histories. Erin deconstructs, analyses then rebuilds the past which enables transcendence into the contemporary fictional narrative she is creating.

Erin holds a Bachelor of Contemporary Art from the University of Tasmania with a major in sculpture and is currently studying Master of Cultural Heritage through Deakin University. Erin has exhibited in various group and solo exhibitions around Australia and as an artist in residency in Budapest, Hungary. Alongside her practice, Erin has worked throughout Australia in private and government run regional and remote cultural heritage arts organizations, museums and galleries. Her current studio and research-based practice continues to examine responses to environmental trauma while attempting to process and restore the scars that permeate our relationship with the earth and each other.

I acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land where i work and live, lutruwita, and I pay respect to Elders - past, present and emerging.
