Lachlan Herd (b.1992) is an interdisciplinary artist currently based in Sydney, Australia. Lachlan’s practice is site oriented, developing through an observational research of place that is focused on the examination of visual and cultural structures. In observation of these sites, Lachlan experiments with the tensions and intimacies existing between individuals and their environments to explore changing human relationships to the nonhuman world.Expressing a fascination with forms of natural phenomena both sinister and seductive, Lachlan strives to present new experiences of existing adjacent to and within the nonhuman world; an experimental process which creates diverse results both practical and mythological. These works may take the shape of an algal bloom, a misty entity, a tranquil meditation, a laboratory of cryptozoology. Lachlan is also one part of the artist trio 110%. 110% create performance and video installations that develop from a shared interest in playing with amateur choreographies of bodies in space; the value of artistic labour; and the dynamics of hosting. Previous works have investigated competitive cultures of positive thinking; links between art appreciation and the pursuit of leisure; and tested the impact of long distance separation on collaborative practice and motivation. Together the group often stage interventions that play with the presentational structure of art events in festival, fair and gallery contexts.
