Group Show : Every Object is a Thing

13 Apr-19 May 2018

Overview

Every Object is a Thing but not every thing is an object brings together seven artists who share an economy of means in their making. Industrially produced materials, functional objects, personal effects and performative situations have been dislocated, re-appropriated, re-contextualised, translated and transformed. With this exhibition we are interested in looking at the porous and relational, how artworks suggest and evoke possible forms, structures and languages. Each work, an act of transformation, speaks of its process of becoming and thereby a mutability of states. As well though, the works are rmly rooted in social and political conditions that inform the formal and narrative possibilities at play.
