Marne Lucas (she/her/they) is a queer interdisciplinary artist and end of life doula based in Portland, Oregon. Her practice spans photography, video, sculpture and collaboration at the intersection of art, science, technology, and health, using conceptual overlaps: life’s energy, intimacy, the body, mortality and transformation. A self-taught artist, Marne’s investigations are informed by the events and emotions of the community around her, and are inspired by the Dharma Art and Social Practice movements, social activism, and the End of Life Doula and palliative care movements; framed by a personal mythology on the meaning of creativity. Lucas has collaborated with artists, activists, choreographers, dancers, musicians, art directors, activist groups, sex workers, health care and LGBTQIA non profits, and the public at large.
