About
Liv Penrose Punnett is a curator, researcher, and lecturer in Fine Art whose work explores alternative ways of knowing. Through contemporary art, she unpicks, questions, and reimagines, asking: what forms of knowledge can exhibitions open up?
Her curatorial practice brings artists, publics, and places into dialogue. Past collaborations include projects with Dorothy Cross, Feral Practice, Susan Hiller, and Tai Shani, delivered through numerous Arts Council-supported exhibitions and events. Her works are held in the British Library, The Tetley, The Ruskin Archive, and the Tate Library and Archive.
Currently, Liv is a doctoral researcher at Nottingham Contemporary and serves on the a-n Artists Council, contributing to national conversations on artistic conditions.
A consistent thread in her work is intersectional environmentalism. She co-founded Haarlem Artspace, a rural contemporary studio and gallery in Derbyshire, and has received the Arts and Humanities Research Council Award, the SIA Gallery Award, and the Jonathan Ruffer Curatorial Award.
