A workshop exploring the interplay of organic materials with optics and the sonic properties of water. Lachlan Turczan’s art invites viewers to reflect on our relationship with the natural ecosystems that shape our existence, positioning water as a source of power and a metaphor for the ways human perception transcends the biological.

This event will discuss Lachlan’s artistic practice, his approach to sculpture, and other water-related works. He will share his vision for the meaning of his art today, particularly in relation to his chosen aesthetics. Lachlan will present his cymatic bowl and laser, providing insights into his creative process.
