We are delighted to share that several works by Lauren O'Connor have been acquired for Lawsons House, an exciting new building in Sydney. With the art collection curated by Benjamin Shand (Studio Shand), each floor is dedicated to an artist, with O'Connor having several works now part of the collection.
