Arrayah Loynd is a conceptual photographic artist whose work explores themes of memory, neurodivergence, the female experience and otherness. She works with altered/expanded photography, archival imagery and mixed media. Arrayah’s work has been featured in Australian and International publications, art prizes and awards; including Lens Culture, Head On Photo Awards, Photo Lucida Critical Mass, and Australian Photography Awards. Following the death of her mother, she reflects on grief, altered perception and chance, photographing a television screen in a blurred state of mourning; later discovering the images formed an unintentional narrative that offered unexpected comfort and trace of loss.
