El color, las formas, sombras, la luz, los objetos. Simples cosas que pasan desapercibidas a la vista rápida de la rutina, una introspección en lo que esta a nuestro alcance y nos rodea, pero que a la vez no es percibido por nosotros.

I wrote a submission to the Government's inquiry into the indigenous arts sector. My key recommendation: Greater public and private legal enforcement activity with respect to the protection of Indigenous Australian IP rights. It didn't happen.

For over two decades Lisa Roet has won acclaim for her powerful investigations into the complex interface
between humans and our simian relatives.
Lisa has drawn inspiration from a myriad of sources including residencies at major international zoos, field
studies of apes living in the forests of Borneo and most recently a scientific experiment between Lisa and
Cardiff University which was the subject of an exhibition at the White Night Festival in Melbourne in 2014.
Lisa’s multidisciplinary approach to her work has challenged, and continues to challenge, fundamental
scientific and behavioral theories relating to human evolution and creationism, language and communication,
science and art. The relationship between humans and ‘other’ primates has formed the basis for these works.
Notwithstanding the potentially political nature of her subject, Roet never indulges in heavy-handed didacticism.
To the contrary, her art practice is infused with refreshing strength, candor and an inescapable sense of
mystery, poignantly highlighting how inextricably linked humans and primates are amidst the complexity of
biology, nature and culture.
Not surprisingly, Lisa’s explorations into the psychology, behavior and the soul of simian-human relations have
attracted an impressive number of art awards and grants including the prestigious: Geelong Gallery Acquisitive
Print Award, Australia (2013), Deakin University Small Sculpture Award, Australia (2012), Fremantle Print
Award, Australia (2011), McClelland Gallery and Sculpture Park Sculpture Survey & Award, Australia (2005),
Mornington Peninsular Regional Gallery, Vic, Australia, National Works on Paper Award, Australian National
Gallery National Sculpture Prize, Australia (2003). She is the recipient of the Australia Council for the Arts,
Creative Partnerships with Asia Grant, 2014.
Since her first show at Querhause Gallery, Berlin in 1992, Lisa has been represented by galleries in Australia,
Belgium, and the USA. Exhibitions have included: Monkey Grip, Deakin University Art Gallery, Melbourne,
which toured various regional galleries throughout Victoria, Australia (2013-14), When I laugh, He laughs
with me, Karen Woodbury Gallery, Melbourne, Australia (2014), Chengdu Biennale, China, 2013, Lisa Roet,

Lisa has also featured in Australian Art Collector’s ‘50 Most Collectible Artists’ and is the subject of a
comprehensive monograph by Alexie Glass titled Lisa Roet: Uncommon Observations that was published
by Thames and Hudson in 2004. Lisa and her work was also the feature of an Australian Broadcasting
Corporation documentary titled APELADY, which was produced by Klaus Toft in 2010 and she is the subject
of a documentary by filmmaker Celeste Geer to be released in 2016.
