Lowell - Sand Artist
Lowell - Sand Artist
Lowell is a proud Nyul Nyul Saltwater man from the Kimberleys in Western Australia, who grew up in Gunditjmara Country in Warrnambool, and now lives in Wathaurong Country, Geelong. Although far apart, each of these special places has kept Lowell strongly connected to the ocean his whole life.
Lowell creates sand art and uses drone photography to capture the scale of his works within breathtaking landscapes, which all started simply, as a way for him to get out and connect with culture, Country and sea.
Using only his feet, Lowell carves stories into the sand using the same foot movements he was taught through Traditional dances his people have practiced for countless generations. Lowell’s artworks tell stories of family, identity and connection. Lowell is the proud recipient of the 2022 National Naidoc Creative Talent Award.
