Lucy Juhnke, Get A Real Job, 2026
Acrylic on marine ply, 35x30cm, framed
Lucy Juhnke is an emerging artist living in the Mid North Coast. Since 2021 Juhnke has exhibited widely across regional New South Wales and was a finalist in Northern Exposure 9 at the Glasshouse Regional Gallery in 2026. She has shown 3 solo exhibitions: Facts and Figurines, The Elephant in the Room, and Outside the Box. Working primarily with interiors and everyday objects, Juhnke examines the home as both a physical and psychological environment - a place that shapes and is shaped by its inhabitants. Juhnke's subject matter reflects a generation engaged in ongoing negotiations of identity, and changing roles in our developing society. Domestic space becomes a host for comfort, autonomy, and belonging, as well as a space shaped by vulnerability, labour, and boundaries.
Juhnke's approach to painting is robust and dynamic, blending abstraction with still life and portraiture. Mainly working with acrylic on wood panel, she emphasises a practical and intuitive approach, embracing imperfections and accidents. Juhnke often incorporates mixed media, found or repurposed objects, distressed materials, and subtle collage. This extends to the frames, most of which are custom made in house from vintage or found materials.
This work was painted while I gallery sat for my exhibition 'Outside the Box.' I did 3 smaller paintings of the gallery space the same day, always including the checkerboard floor. This type of repetition has become an important part of my practice, as an act of focus and gratitude. The book in the painting was given to me for free when I visited John Murray's gallery in Lightning Ridge, because it had a small mark.
