Artists exhibiting in the May round of shows talk about their work. Including:
Michelle Hamer (with Cat Wilson): Dangling Carrots
A new series of hand-stitched tapestries on perforated plastic and digital projections exploring personal, suburban and urban limits. The works, based on Hamer's own photographs taken during the Global Financial Crisis, continue her interest in socio-historic documentation through signage.
Kate Just: Unearthed
Kate Just continues her sculptural explorations of historical, personal and iconographic tools relating to women's bodily and cultural history. The works were inspired by research in the Egyptian, Medieval, Greek, Roman, Textile/Costume, Arts of the Americas and Arts of Africa collections at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Brooklyn Museum in New York City.
Chaco Kato: Pulp Fiction
Pulp Fiction presents a microcosmic world of plant-based materials shaped into mobiles, weavings, small objects and web structures, with each thing connected to another. The exhibition aims to describe the world we live in: eating and being eaten, the food chain, the life cycle.
