Surface - group exhibition at Smith & Stonely 1998, curated by Edwina Bartleme
Something delicate reinterpreted through an industrial building material.
Made from silicon. Turned out to be a very ephemeral piece since people walked all over it at the opening and it was too filthy to keep. Unexpected interactions! I guess it needed more obvious lighting to point it out... I didn't want to put a physical barrier though.
(...and I had all these ideas for what to do with it next! It was quite painful on my hands doing that much silicon work though, so I stopped at this one piece.)Click image for larger version.
- Installation/sculpture - condoms and cd cases.
DAS OBJEKT exhibition curated by Franz Ehman
Whitebox Gallery 1997
Not sure how I spelt it at the time, but it was meant to be odd...
Soapbox group exhibition probably DAS SUBJEKT - latex work on wall - looks like I don't have a photo!
Latex and white paint in the shape of an alchemy symbol... So white on white! No idea what my sentence was...
Similar kind of work to the Silicon Doily, except actually joined to the wall.
Soapbox window and Bartleme Galleries as part of a group exhibition.
(This is the Bartleme Galleries one)
Site-specific Atomic Art group installation.
McWhirter's artspace artists studio 1990
Enter the circular curtain. Large prints of the artists' eyes stare down on a path around a raised dias of government-floor-reminiscent lino with an office chair. Above, Donna Free ceramic angelic/demonic figures hover.
The circle leads you to two booths, with music and sounds.
One is bright, with cacophonous sounds of war, a vintage hospital cabinet and some odd-looking instruments.The other is dark, things glowing under a black light, with strange textures of rubber and fur and large buttons - Teenage Russian Spy plays when you press one. Strange chewing sounds come when you press the other.
Big Brother or unemployment queue PTSD? Hot war, cold war, nuclear fear and fake fur.
Atomic Art - Brad Nunn, Kirsti Watson, Neil Degney, Donna Free, Geoff Corbett and Rosz Craig.
