Artist Bio
b. 1984
Stephanie Doddridge is a contemporary artist living and working on Kaurna and Ngarrindjeri Country, South Australia. Her interdisciplinary practice explores the symbolic and critical relationships between people, plants and places through sculpture, installation, textiles, printmaking, and knowledge-sharing. Drawing on practices of care and site-responsive research, Doddridge investigates how everyday acts of tending and cultivating can grow more nourishing, reciprocal relationships with the natural world. With organic, experimental materials, she creates works that foreground interdependence, regeneration, and collective responsibility.
Stephanie's showed in Hatched: National Graduate Exhibition at Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, in 2021, and in 2023 her solo exhibition On Harvesting Dandelions received the City Rural Emerging Artist Award as part of SALA Festival. In 2024 she undertook the Guildhouse Collections Project with Flinders University Museum of Art and was Curator for the Helpmann Academy 2025 Graduate Exhibition. As a current studio artist at Adelaide Contemporary Experimental, Stephanie explores the intersections between artistic research, ecology and experimental practice.
