Topographies

Opening night: Wednesday, 7 August, 6pm - 8pm

Topographies considers studio practice posited within experimental processes, technological inquiry, ecological criticality and collaborative actions. The works in the exhibition are born from art practices that consider political structures, environmental forces, and societal challenges. Through experimental studio techniques and alternative modes of practice participants posit and critique wide topographical terrains whether factual, contested or imagined.

The exhibition layout guides visitors through a looped thematic topographical tour inviting navigation of intricate relationships between possible/present topographies framed within studio practice.

Artists: Ben Denham, Vicky Browne, Rachel Peachey & Paul Mosig, Magnetic Topographies & Friends, Brendan Van Hek and Amanda Williams.
