Lauren Berkowitz creates ephemeral and site-specific installations that evoke the passage of time, loss and renewal. Her work explores the poetic resonance of natural and man-made materials and their transformative qualities through light, volume and space. Often inspired by the landscape but disquieted by its precarious state, she recycles narratives and residual matter as a process of environmental regeneration.
Berkowitz acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. She pays respect to their Elders past and present and extends that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
