Janet Laurence ‘The Palm at the End of the Mind’ at The Johnston Collection

July 25, 2019

Janet Laurence’s exhibition ‘The Palm at the End of the Mind’ will be showing at The Johnston Collection in East Melbourne until the 17 September 2019. This exhibition challenges the conventions of the Fairhall spaces, unpacking the relationships to nature, culture, collecting and discovery that are internalised within Fairhall. Janet’s exhibition is art of the continuing ‘house of ideas’ project series where The Johnston Collection commissions guest artists to use Fairhall as a site-specific installation space to rec-onceptualise the exhibition-house and explore its many layers of meaning.
