Fabrications In Materiality:
Sept 23 – Oct 23, 2022

Jenifer Brant / Ada Dragomir / Anna Heywood Jones / Vaughan McMillan / Jess Portfleet

The on-hand…by-hand by use of the ready-made in an intimate process of handwork is a way of material engagement that explores the everyday, reflecting each artist’s ethos and histories. By tying into the long familiar traditions of craft, collage, assemblage and art povera in a process of what Berthold Brecht termed Entfremdung, these pieces estrange the familiar to create new associations and ways of seeing.

Fabrications IN*Materiality engages in a complex dialogue, both playful and earnest, that probes dominant societal constructs; supporting a give and go of revelation and withholding of expected and unexpected.
