Lynette Wallworth’s practice spans photography, video installation and short film. Her work focuses on the relationships between people and nature and explores how people are made up of their physical and biological environments, even as they re-make the world through their activities. Wallworth treats the viewer’s engagement with an artwork as a metaphor for their connectedness with biological, social and ecological systems.
Wallworth has been the recipient of several awards and commissions. For instance in 2003-2004 she was awarded a New Media Arts Fellowship from the Australia Council, and in 2006 she completed an Arts Council England Fellowship residency at the National Glass Centre, Sunderland, UK. The following year the BFI Gallery London commissioned her to further develop her work 'Hold’, a commission which culminated in the work and exhibition 'Hold: vessel2’. Exhibitions have included Lynette Wallworth at the National Glass Centre (2007), the Australian touring exhibition Terra Alterius (2005), the New Crowned Hope Festival in Vienna (2006)and Turbulence: 3rd Auckland Triennial (2007).
