Jenny Gillam MFA

Senior Lecturer

Doctoral Co-Supervisor
School of Art

Jenny Gillam's art research is focused on exhibition practice which investigates visual constructs of the socio-politics of ecology. Her installations include elements of photography, audio, moving image, and sometimes observing living organisms within the gallery. She sometimes works in a site specific manner, and often collaboratively, with other artists or with researchers from another field. Gillam also has an interest in the role of the Artist-Curator.
