Bridie Lunney is an artist and poet who develops her works in relation to the site of presentation, engaging the given context, physical conditions, and poetics. Combining practices of large-scale architectural interventions, sculpture, and performance, Lunney acknowledges the body as a conduit between our psychological selves and the physical world. She has exhibited extensively including at the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne International Arts Festival, TarraWarra Biennial, Federation Square, Gertrude Contemporary, Artspace and Performance Space. Her book of poetry was published by no more poetry in 2021 and reprinted in 2025. She has lectured in Sculpture and Contemporary Practice for over 15 years across universities in Melbourne and Sydney.

Bridie Lunney is working toward a site-responsive installation at The Lock-Up for The Dark Blooms and Sings, curated by Moon Lacroix, opening in February 2027. Focusing on night as the disruptor of the prescribed choreography of the city and water as contained and wild systems across Newcastle, Lunney will be writing poetry and documenting performative responses to site, scaling personal histories to deep time.
