Selection and Curation by Rebecca Fairman at Arthouse1

Work.
By 30 artists.
Below,
A meaning of terms,
For each artist,
From each artist,
A serendipity of words?

No brief, no statement, no sentence
Meaning can slip and shift.
The beholder
Should not feel comfortable.

Systematic, unpredictable and intuitive
Ideas of breath and connection,
Atmosphere of dreamed spaces,
Forlorn and abandoned.

Lives that once were whole,
Transmuted through burning
The element of masquerade
At the moment of his death.

The fragility of desires,
Presence and loss,
Dead ones,
Erosion decay and transformation.
Find beauty.

In many towns
The surrender of being lost,
Life changing circumstances,
Capture the intangible
Connections, yet there is disconnect.

Hubris,
Our self obsessed culture,
Intolerance of mistakes/imperfections in life ,
A personal space, one that others might enter.

Trying to capture
Visual movement,
The play of line against colour
Is quite magical.
