A collection of works from the series, ‘Entangled Garden for Plant Memory’, by JANET LAURENCE, are currently on show in the exhibition, ‘Destination Sydney: The natural world’, at Mosman Art Gallery, Sydney until 20 March.
Presented as part of Sydney Festival 2022, Destination Sydney: The natural world is the third exhibition in a series of collaborations planned between three Sydney public galleries, Manly Art Gallery & Museum, Mosman Art Gallery and the National Trust’s S. H. Ervin. Over the summer of 2015-2016 they jointly presented the unprecedented collaborative exhibition project, Destination Sydney, which became a hugely successful project for each gallery, soon followed by the equally triumphant Destination Sydney: Reimagined held in the summer 2018-2019.
Like its preceding exhibitions The natural world showcases artworks responding to the theme of Sydney as a place of creative endeavours, with a strong focus on the work of major Australian women artists, all connected by their concern for landscape, the natural world and the environment.
Destination Sydney: The natural world presents the work of a select group of key Australian artists whose art practice has become synonymous with the natural world. Artists at Mosman Art Gallery include Janet Laurence, Caroline Rothwell and Robyn Stacey.

ANNE ZAHALKA’s exhibition at the Wollongong Art Gallery
Installation view of exhibition SNAPPED! Street Photography in the Illawarra – Anne Zahalka with Sam St Jon and residents of the Illawarra.
ANNE ZAHALKA’s exhibition ‘Snapped! Street Photography in the Illawarra’ at the Wollongong Art Gallery continues until 20 February.
For this exhibition Zahalka has collected, examined and reconfigured photographic street portraits made in Wollongong in the mid decades of the 20th Century to form the imagery. Recorded originally by early commercial street photographers from 1930’s – 60’s of passers-by, these postcard sized prints captured people in a candid way. Collected through a call-out from residents, these photos have been assembled to provide a tangible trace of the city allowing visitors to reimagine how this city once looked.
