Lorenna Grant: High Performance

I have produced many site specific installations and projects to do with art in relation to environments. Turtle Rush: a Post Natural Breath 1998 spanned more than two years and formed the groundwork for later experiential works. It included research into the science of wetlands and water health, redesign, earthworks and plantings.

Patronage and Corporate Collections in Western Australia

While only a small percentage of national enterprises are based in the west, business leaders have a tradition of serious interest in the visual arts, with a number owning fine collections which they are prepared to share with the public. The three collections featured here all include contemporary Western Australian art - a form of patronage local artists can instantly appreciate. The associated catalogues and books produced are an enduring form of patronage which provide a much needed record of art in Western Australia.
