Overview

Herald St presents Scaffolding, a group exhibition including nine artists from the gallery’s programme: Markus Amm, Michael Dean, Trix and Robert Haussmann, Annette Kelm, Sanou Oumar, Djordje Ozbolt, Matt Paweski, Amalia Pica and Nicole Wermers.

As a noun, ‘scaffolding’ evokes a delicate, temporary structure of support. As a verb, ‘to scaffold’ implies to bridge a connection; to forge a bond or affinity. In different ways, the works in this exhibition reference such structures – be they physical or more abstract.
