Savannah Lamal
Lamal works across painting, photography, sculpture, installation, architecture, and sound. Her practice engages the material and perceptual conditions of experience, treating form, space, and process as sites for inquiry. Through open-ended experimentation, she examines how systems of making and seeing construct meaning within contemporary and historical contexts.

Lamal works across painting, photography, sculpture, installation, architecture, and sound. Her practice engages the material and perceptual conditions of experience, approaching form, space, and process as active sites of inquiry. Through open-ended experimentation, she investigates how systems of making and seeing construct meaning across both contemporary and historical contexts.
While working as an architect at Herzog & de Meuron, designing spaces for the exhibition of art, Lamal became increasingly aware of a parallel impulse, to move beyond framing the conditions for art and instead participate directly in its making. This realization marked a decisive shift: from that point onward, her own art practice began to take shape, evolving alongside and in dialogue with her architectural work.
