Lisa Sammut

About the work

Lisa Sammut’s practice oscillates between notions of cosmic perspective, belonging, connection and time. Privileging the poetic, intuitive and experiential, her recent works use a wide range of media to explore nonhuman perspectives, alter perceptions and question human-centric thinking. moon pool (garden sculpture) is a new work developed for the Canberra Art Biennial responding to the natural garden setting of the gallery space.
