Lulu’s work spans across a variety of mixed media, including ceramics, textiles and printmaking. Her practice focuses on ideas of authenticity and individuality, wether this is a concept to explore the differences between authentic and counterfeit items, or exploring personal heritage through projects such as using family tartans to question what it means to be authentically Scottish.

Her processes are highly experimental and not confined to a particular material, allowing a fluid dialogue between medium and concept. Influenced by a wide range of artists including Christian Jeffrey, who blurs the line between sportswear and Fine art, his work often reflects Lulu’s own uncommon background competing in international sport whilst partaking an art degree.

Recently, she has chosen to work primarily with white clay and transparent glazes. Inspired by Edmund De Waal’s approach, Lulu sees neutrality not as an absence of energy, but as an invitation to encourage viewers to look beyond colour and focus on the details, forms and textures of the pieces – honing in on what makes each piece individual. By removing surface ‘distractions’, her work asks deeper questions about identity, a sense and what sets objects and individuals apart.

Through this continuous evolving practice, Lulu continues to explore how we recognise authenticity and how the smallest distinctions can reveal deeper narratives.
