FUTURES
Refrains are the stuff of life, both macro and micro, forming boundaries and territories within entropy. Rhythms and rituals are ubiquitous, from everyday routines, to the cosmic constraints of day and night, birth and death. The studio is also a space where the repeated physical action of making takes place.
In this exhibition, repetitions appear in works spanning sculpture, painting, photography, and the digital, a means of achieving visual symphonies where time is stretched and deepened. Yet simmering below surfaces are narratives ranging from the historical, natural, theoretical, to the mythical – palimpsest-like in concept or process. Formalism and subject grind up together creating spaces of mystery, opaqueness and revelations.
