Installation view of Janet Laurence’s ‘Entangled Garden for Plant Memory’ series in exhibition ‘Destination Sydney: The natural world’ at Mosman Art Gallery.
A collection of works from the series, ‘Entangled Garden for Plant Memory’, by JANET LAURENCE, are currently on show in the exhibition, ‘Destination Sydney: The natural world’, at Mosman Art Gallery, Sydney until 20 March.
Presented as part of Sydney Festival 2022, Destination Sydney: The natural world is the third exhibition in a series of collaborations planned between three Sydney public galleries, Manly Art Gallery & Museum, Mosman Art Gallery and the National Trust’s S. H. Ervin. Over the summer of 2015-2016 they jointly presented the unprecedented collaborative exhibition project, Destination Sydney, which became a hugely successful project for each gallery, soon followed by the equally triumphant Destination Sydney: Reimagined held in the summer 2018-2019.
Like its preceding exhibitions The natural world showcases artworks responding to the theme of Sydney as a place of creative endeavours, with a strong focus on the work of major Australian women artists, all connected by their concern for landscape, the natural world and the environment.
Destination Sydney: The natural world presents the work of a select group of key Australian artists whose art practice has become synonymous with the natural world. Artists at Mosman Art Gallery include Janet Laurence, Caroline Rothwell and Robyn Stacey.
