Biography
Natalie Lowe is an intermedia artist, metalsmith, and sculptor based in the Midwestern United States. After receiving her BFA in metalsmithing from Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville, she decided to pursue her MFA at Ball State University, where she began experimenting with installation and mixed-media sculpture. Her most recent project, House Dreams, is an installation-based work inspired by the suburban landscape of her childhood, a lifelong fascination with miniature, and the loneliness of contemporary life. More broadly, her life’s work contemplates longing, privacy, intimacy, and interiority. Over the course of her career as an artist, she has won multiple awards in juried exhibitions, exhibited work nationally, and has been the recipient of multiple grants and fellowships.
