09.01.2022 UPDATE! Incubate, Reimagined PCP is pleased to present Lauren McCartney @laurenmccartneyartist, as the first special guest joining INCUBATE: Reimagined. Along with our facilitator, Chris Young @pleasantlyabsent, Lauren will share her current projects following our week one theme: Disrupt. ...... ... Lauren McCartney is a multidisciplinary feminist artist who is based in Wollongong (Dharawal Country), New South Wales. Her work parodies objectification and conventions of appropriate female behaviour. She creates situations where her body is humorously exaggerated to the degree that she becomes a spectacle and an object of laughter, whilst simultaneously disrupting stereotypes and myths about femininity and misbehaviour. McCartneys practice offers the concept that through failing with her materials and her body, she succeeds in creating her work. McCartney holds a PhD (2018) through Curtin University and a Bachelor of Creative Arts (2010) (Honours Class I) from the University of Wollongong. Her work has been collected by the Art Gallery of Western Australia and she has exhibited her work and participated in presentations on her practice both nationally and internationally.
