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.

While designing spaces for the exhibition of art as an architect working at Herzog & de Meuron, it became clear to Lamal that she yearned to be the maker of artworks housed in these spaces. From that moment onwards her art practice began and has been an exploration in scale, working from interior, to architecture, to urban fabric, and industrial infrastructure, from supply chains and economic systems, to the hyperobjects produced by the interaction of these entities.
