For over 30 years Janet Laurence has explored the interconnection of all living things - animal, plant, mineral - through her multi-disciplinary practice. Working across painting, sculpture, installation, photography and video, she has employed diverse materials to explore the natural world in all its beauty and complexity, as well as the environmental challenges it faces today: the epoch of the Anthropocene. Laurence's MCA Australia survey brings together key works and themes across the artist's practice over a thirty-year period. From her alchemical works of the early 1990s utilising metal plates, minerals and organic substances, and lightboxes, to her installations of the 2000s and beyond incorporating plant and animal specimens within transparent vitrines and 'wunderkammer' environments, Laurence's works reflect on the fragility natural world, its plight and potential restoration.
