blackwell street (2015)
exhibited at firstdraft in sydney, august 2015 timber, timber laminate, plasterboard, paint, antique pendulum clock, cigarette packets. 8.2m x 4.1m x 2.7m blackwell street is a fragmented reconstruction of a home in the family for decades. for the duration of the exhibition, the gallery becomes the site of the home in it's current dilapidated form; the qualities and ambience of which impart a sense of lost hope and existential belittlement. the vacancy of this once inhabited space within the gallery recalls memory of melancholy in desolation. |
