Liúsaidh is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice expands the boundaries of photography through an exploration of ancestry, folklore, landscape and identity. Her work is rooted in self-investigation, using a multi-modal approach to challenge traditional representations of landscape and to question how identity is shaped by place. Influenced by her upbringing in Shetland, the wild landscapes and local legends serve both as subject and collaborator in her work.












Liúsaidh often combines portraiture and landscape, creating a co-dependent relationship between self and place. Even in the absence of her physical presence, the work remains a portrait, reflecting personal experience and a deep sense of being. Her work utilises visual codes to communicate internal perspectives, inviting viewers into the worlds she constructs of duality, memory, and dreams. Liúsaidh's current work continues to investigate the relationship between identity and place by incorporating Scottish folklore, ancient sites and rituals. Currently there is a central focus on stones and the legends associated with them which is enacted through photography, sound, film, installation and interactive media.
