One of five artists chosen for Tate Britain’s ‘Painting Now’ show in 2013–14, Lucy McKenzie’s profile is rising fast. Schooled in traditional art techniques at Van der Kelen – Logelain in Brussels, McKenzie deliberately moves between fine art and other fields, combining painting with craft, fashion, architecture and design.
