Herald St is pleased to announce Kicking Die (To Scale With a Ladder),
Michael Dean’s sixth solo exhibition with the gallery. This presentation continues Dean’s two-decade-long exploration of transposing language and experimental forms of typography into three-dimensional sculpture, often resulting in physical environments and immersive installations. His ideological interrogation inextricably binds symbolic histories and socio-political vicissitudes with his own quotidian narrative and personal history. The artist describes the act of an exhibition as an artifice, theatre, or stage, whereby ‘the gallery is a white page; the viewer is a protagonist; and the exhibition becomes a publication.’
