Rosslynd Piggott (born 7 June 1958) is an Australian installation artist and painter.[1] She was born in Frankston, Victoria, and educated at the University of Melbourne from 1977 to 1980. She received the St. Kilda Council acquisitive price in 1986, the Sara Weis Nude award in 1992 and grants from Visual Arts/Craft Board of Australia Council in 1990 and 1997.[2]
Piggott's art includes symbolist and surrealist themes where "she explores a dream-like state, where the process is open-ended – part of a continuum – and the notion of the uncanny is a constant companion."[3]
Piggott has exhibited in 60 important solo exhibitions and numerous curated events[4] both nationally and internationally, including at the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne (1998), the Kitamoto Cultural Centre, Saitama, Japan (1997), the Mori Gallery, Sydney (1997), ARCO O2 in Madrid, the 1999 Liverpool Biennial,[5] and the National Gallery of Victoria again in 2019.
