Dr Tracey Clement is an award-winning artist and former Sydney Morning Herald art critic. Her recent works have been shown publicly in competitive exhibitions such as the 2025 Dobell Drawing Prize, the 2024 Blake Prize, and the 2022 North Sydney Art Prize. In 2021 Clement held a solo exhibition at the Casula Powerhouse (now Liverpool Powerhouse) which was the result of winning the 2018 Blake Prize Established Artist Residency and was informed by a 2019 AGNSW residency at the Cité in Paris.
Although her primary medium is sculpture, all of Clement's work is multi-disciplinary in that her research relies on the synergy generated by thinking through both writing and the hands-on making of artworks. A key focus of her ongoing research is using the power of art as a visual communication tool designed to present the impact of an anthropocentric world-view in a way that beguiles with beauty -in order to foster dialogue and posit strategies for social adaptation-rather than bamboozling audiences with doom-laden facts.
