Painter's table
Lynch works predominantly with sculpture and performance. projects develop from research concerned with the emotional impact of the built environment and the questionable existence of the female flaneur, which refers to a man who saunters around observing society or flaneuse.
Lynch described her new exhibition as an architectural drama: a collection of new sculptural works which loosely mimic the objects, scenarios and histories found on her daily commute. The mundane examination of this regular transition from home life to work life generates a self-portrait, exposing what it is to be a female artist living in this city.
Frequently using performance as an active framework for making, Lynch has shared for commute with writers Jenny Richards and Rhona Warwick Paterson to create a new text and performance work. Just as a map allows one to navigate city roads and streets, the text offers viewers a script through which one can navigate this installation.
This show included accompanying performances.
