Lowe maintains a conscious engagement with art historical touchstones in her practice. Some -like Cubism and abstract formalism – are apparent, while others – such as 17th century Dutch still lifes or Surrealism – might be less obvious. In "Drift Threshold" – her new, emerging body of work – Lowe draws upon a repertoire of elements rooted in the “ground truth” of empirical evidence and personal history. Through her multi-layered process, she employs tactics of design (tracing, puzzling, figuring…) to tease abstract pictorial structures from her visual records of transitory landscapes seen from the air and lapping sea foam. This new chapter in her work continues an abiding interest in imbuing formal structures with emotional agency through a range of forms and materials to prompt associations with our efforts to frame, order, contain, and control the comforts and threats of an unruly world.
