Currently living and working on Boonwurrung country, Australia.
Jo Lane (b. 1954) is an artist working in drawing and sculpture. A Melbourne woman, although a British citizen also, Jo’s work considers and explores social and psychological spaces. Her work responds intuitively to the outside world, the inside world, and differing depths of sensibility and expression, as a social function.
British Psychoanalyst, Donald W Winnicott places some artistic motivation in the tension between the desire to hide and the desire to communicate. Her work erupts from this tension, between the private refuge of existence and the nature of external engagement that is art making.
