Artist Bio: Linda Schneider is a Victorian-based artist whose practice centres on the human figure. Working across acrylic and oil painting, as well as layered charcoal and ink drawings, her process is deliberately iterative, allowing earlier decisions to remain visible within the surface of the work.
Her figures are built through repeated drawing, sanding, erasure, and repainting, creating images that hold a sense of accumulation and quiet tension rather than a fixed or polished finish. Schneider is interested in how restraint, revision, and time shape an image, and how the body can be used as a site for both observation and inward reflection.
Her work has been recognised in major Australian prizes, including being a finalist in the Dobell Drawing Prize.
