About the Exhibitions
Exhibition Title | Material Transformations
Artists | Emma Bingham, Svenja Kratz + Sarah Stubbs
Exhibition Statement
Material Transformations draws together the work of three practitioners: Emma Bingham, Svenja Kratz and Sarah Stubbs. The artists explore through the act of making how the body holds and sheds material memories. They explore in content and approach how physical and material matter can highlight and accumulate physical and emotional residues, traces and deeply personal utterances.
They ask what is transformation and how does it speak to our physical and emotional body. How does it relate to paper, clay, thread, cell and surface? How can the unsaid be captured through the act of transformation?
Exhibition Title | holy arm gauntlet
Artist | Tom Campbell
Exhibition Statement
holy arm gauntlet presents recent work by Kamberri/Boorloo based artist Tom Campbell positioning embroidery as a location for disagreement. The act of disagreeing is a long-held interest, particularly in the ways in which it both forges and fractures connection. In parallel, Tom considers how poetry might act as a way into navigating this dynamic. If poetry resists the idea that words possess one meaning and by nature embraces ambiguity and plurality, what possibilities does this open up for reframing the ways one experiences the bodily sensation of being ‘in disagreement?’
