Bec STEVENS
Bec Stevens is an artist preoccupied with plants, people and places. She trained in Fine Arts, Environmental Design and Horticulture. She works in an interdisciplinary approach, core to her practice is drawing, listening, collaborating and responding to site, context and materiality. Her work spans from delighting in the process of making and conceptualising through to planning, producing and delivering projects.
She believes in the capacity of creative practice to work through complex problems in lateral and effective ways. She uses emergent strategies to weave understandings of the social, historical and geographical attributes of the places we inhabit and embody.
Bec has been involved in the creative fields for many years with experience within community, galleries, museums and artist run initiatives. A key project that she devised was STOP. REST. PLAY. A three-week shopfront project that visualised and involved children as active citizens in the CBD and invited public response to including children’s needs in our urban strategies. https://becstevens.net/
