Lucy Norton (she/they)
is a poet & artist based on Gadigal Country, Sydney.

Lucy Norton is a queer storyteller of Darug & Quechua heritage. Her work explores themes of ancestry and lived experience. They aim to navigate the complexities of identity, relationality and memory while seeking healing within fractured landscapes. She is a recipient of the 2023 Varuna First Nations Fellowships, 2024 Red Room Emerging Poet’s Residency, and her work has been published in kindling & sage magazine, Sunder Journal, Blue Bottle Journal and Right Now Magazine.

They also create mixed medium artworks from predominantly hand woven items using native, traditional materials such as lomandra and dianella. Engaging in the process of harvesting, dyeing and curing the plant material, Lucy sees it as a spiritual, ancestral practice as much as an artistic vehicle to express themselves.
