LEONIE ANDREWS<br />

Leonie Andrews is a visual artist working in textiles and print making. Her work<br />

explores the themes of location and how, as individuals, we connect to a particular<br />

place.<br />

Since completing her studies at the Australian National University School of Art in<br />

2006, she has explored and recorded various aspects of suburban life. The resulting<br />

work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions across Australia. Andrews has<br />

also been a finalist in a number of art prizes.<br />

In 2016 Andrews was awarded an Asialink Arts Residency, spending two months in<br />

Tokyo, exploring daily life in the world’s greatest metropolis.<br />

In the lead-up to Australia’s Bicentennial in 1988, the Semco company produced a<br />

commercially successful range of craft kits depicting utopian visions of an earlier<br />

colonial-era Australia, such as ‘Cottage Garden’. In 2019 I completed an unfinished<br />

kit I found in an op shop, updating it with my own contemporary references.<br />
