23rd January - 9th February
Gallery One: Hannah Fox – Città. Terra.
Opening Jan 23rd from 6pm.
Meaning — “Town. Earth.”
This new body of work is a product of my recent artist residency in northern Italy and continues my exploration of documenting felt experiences.
I observed a softer light fall on the facades of historic buildings and surveyed the textures and shapes of stone walls. The warm tones of Italy’s earth featured heavily both in the transforming autumnal trees and in the township itself.
This exhibition encompasses a fusion of my aesthetic responses. The ‘still response’ — paintings; and the ‘adaptable response’ — the interactive ceramic works. Both work together in unison yet provide alternate experiences.
The Canning Room: Alejandro Casas - In-Between
Opening Jan 23rd from 6pm.
The everyday is divided. It is divided amongst our distractions, our obligations, our sense of purpose and our sense of boredom. Technology has come to occupy a large piece of this division, to the extent that our perspective of the world around us is infinitely smaller. However, as the everyday becomes continually repurposed, something slips, something goes unnoticed and falls into the in-between.
This group of photos explores the boundary between connection and perspective at the limit of our daily experience. These photos view the in-between as a mode of being that goes from place to place, as a concrete fact of the everyday that might otherwise go unseen.
