Career

Dwyer has been producing work for exhibition since the early 1980s, developing a career in installation and sculptural work. Her practice deals with the spiritual, magic, rituals, the occult, alchemy and the "other". Dwyer's practice can be described as "playful and fanatical" as she invites the audience to participate with her works and draw their own conclusions. Dwyer is known for her use of everyday materials such as plastics, metal, wood, fabric,

. Curated by Linda Michael, the exhibition included James Angus, Dwyer, Gale Hastings, and Constance Zikos. In 2000 Dwyer had a major solo exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia. The exhibition included the recent works from Dwyer's practice as well as site specific pieces tailored to interact with the gallery space. In 2010 Dwyer created an installation titled ''Square Cloud Compound'' on Cockatoo Island for the Biennale of Sydney. Dwyer's work deals with the island's ominous history in a playful manner. In 2016 Dwyer was awarded a

titled ''A Shape of Thought''. The exhibition explored Dwyer's investigation of "the consciousness and liveliness of matter surrounding us" and was composed of current artworks which included ''Square Cloud Compound'' (2010), ''The letterbox Marys'' (2015–17), and ''The silvering'' (2017). In 2018 Dwyer and Justene Williams, with curators Susan Best and Ann Stephen, were shortlisted to represent Australia at the 2019 Venice Biennale. Although their proposal was not selected, it was later remodelled into "Mondspiel" part of the ''Bauhaus Now'' exhibition. In 2019 Ann Stephen curated ''Bauhaus Now'', an exhibition that was held at the Buxton Contemporary, Melbourne for the 100th anniversary celebration of the Bauhaus. Mikala Dwyer and Justene Williams collaborated to create installations focusing on the "Bauhaus legacy in Australia".
