Lyndal Jones, Darwin with Tears
Australian artist Lyndal Jones long and successful career at the forefront of video and performance art in Australia will be celebrated with a survey exhibition at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) from May 24.
Lyndal Jones uses personal stories and memories to explore desire, attraction and sexual selection in a long and celebrated practice that has seen her represent Australia at the 2001 Venice Biennale, and show her work at numerous galleries here and overseas.
A pioneer of new media, video and performance art in Australia, Jones has produced a massive body of work since the early 1980s, and is known for creating long-term projects which initially focused on performance then video installation. Throughout, her works have addressed the power of the experiential and the development of interactivity.
Works in this major survey exhibition include:
The Prediction Pieces, The Darwin Translations, Deep Water/Aqua Profunda, and a new work commissioned especially for this exhibition, the words Tears for what has been done will light up the exterior wall of ACCA, reflected in pools of gathered water below.
