A new artwork titled ‘The View From Here’, created as part of the 2025 Parliament of Western Australia – Edith Cowan University Artist-in-Residence program, has been launched by the Presiding Officers.
In this work that includes 111 colours, artist Joanna Lamb looks toward the city from the forecourt of Parliament House to produce a cityscape that represents Parliament’s connection with the city and its communities, and its ultimate responsibility to the people of Western Australia.
Lamb, a renowned WA contemporary artist, is celebrated for her refined geometric compositions that explore spaces of (sub)urbanity and place.
The long-running artist-in-residence program invites Western Australian artists to engage with the life, culture and civic landscape of Parliament House.
