Laura J. Lawson: Dépaysement @ The Martha and Robert Fogelman Galleries of Contemporary Art | Memphis | Tennessee | United States

“Dépaysement” is the MFA thesis exhibition featuring the work of Laura J. Lawson. “Dépaysement,” a French word with no direct English translation, describes the feeling of being out of one’s home country. The exhibition addresses her three years in Memphis contrasted with her recent artist residency in Marnay-sur-Seine, France.
