This week's install was epic at Linden Centre for Contemporary Art. Blind Spot is the year long project that I have been working on that has been funded by the Australia Council for the Arts. A labor of love (or total insanity), I am thrilled to be able to share a sneak peak of the work before it opens!
A massive thank you and explosion of cosmic love to all of the friends and family that rallied round to help bring this project into being. I physically could not have done it with out you!! Sarah Wilmot, Nadia Mercuri, Thomas Ryan, Stef Watson and Dominique Morgan - you are truly loved!
....
for those of you that follow my blog I am about to do some serious back
dating of news events and updates for my records so forgive me but the wonderful news is well overdue!
Late
last year (2013) I was awarded a new work grant for the biggest project I have
ever attempted...I am thrilled to be pushing my arts practice to new
heights (literally in this case!) Blind Spot is a year long
project that will focus on reinterpreting traditional craft materials
and techniques, working with new technologies to find an innovative way
to respond to the theme the artwork addresses-
'In
every observation there is a blind spot, the spot on the retina where
the optical nerve is connected making the eye blind on that very spot,
all one can do is try to move these blind spots, in an effort to catch a
glimpse of the invisible'
The
Australia Council for the Arts is an amazing resource for Australia
Artists... they reveal hidden truths about Aussie culture like:
