Janenne Eaton is an eminent Australian artist whose work is critically engaged with some of the most pressing humanitarian and cultural debates shaping our lives today. Eaton’s paintings and installations explore environmental, historical, and political concerns, and the impact of a globalised, digital ecology on the individual, on communities, and on Nature. Eaton’s powerful images contemplate some of the intangible complexities of the human condition and incorporate some of the key signifiers of our consumer-led, information-obsessed society to make searingly critical commentary on how we live and human beings’ changing relationship to time, space, and place.
Geelong Gallery is delighted to present the first major survey of Janenne Eaton’s extraordinary practice, through works spanning more than four decades.
