"It is at this point that I realise maybe there are no such thing as coincidences. Lazaro has been using labyrinth motifs in his work for a number of years prior to moving next door to one." - Sophia Cai on visiting Desmond Lazaro at his studio in Kyneton, Victoria.

Desmand Lazaro is now showing 'Point and Line to Plane' at AGNSW
Desmand Lazaro is now showing 'Point and Line to Plane', a specially commissioned artist project, at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, curated by Jackie Dunn.
Nestled in the heart of the AGNSW's major exhibition 'Kandinsky', Lazaro’s work explores our fundamental relationship with the cosmos through ‘sacred geometries’ – the hidden meaning of shapes – probing the laws of art and nature to consider their mysteries. It features several of Lazaro's interstellar paintings and sketchbooks, combined with some truly beautiful exhibition design inspired by Lazaro's work.
DESMOND LAZARO In Conversation
Join us tonight from 6pm for 'DESMOND LAZARO In Conversation'.
An enthralling speaker, the artist will be present at the gallery for an intimate, in-depth discussion with artist and Professor of Contemporary Art, CHARLES GREEN.
In this talk between close peers, they will explore Lazaro's practice and the fascinating inspiration behind his new body of work on display in the group exhibition, THE EDGE OF THE SPHERE, currently showing at ARC ONE Gallery.
Tuesday 27 September, 6pm.
THE EDGE OF THE SPHERE
THE EDGE: OF THE SPHERE
NOW ON AT ARC ONE GALLERY
The cooled and hardened outer layer of planet Earth, the crust, is anywhere between 5 and 70 kilometres thick. The topsoil that sustains human life can be measured in centimetres. The edge holds everything. We look up to the stars, out to the ocean, into the core, and these things provoke awe and wonder in us.
In this exhibition ARC ONE presents three artists intimate with the mysteries of the sphere and its limit, the edge.
Featuring the work of DANI MARTI, JANET LAURENCE and, for the first time at ARC ONE, DESMOND LAZARO
Exhibition open until 8 October.
