Wandering Between the Past and the Future
Wandering between the past and the future brings together a family of four for their first collaborative exhibition. Their themes revolve around the Human Condition. The centrepoint of this exhibition is a diorama: a long panoramic tableau across which a procession of figures trudge. Each character possesses attributes symbolizing their personal identity and social role but the procession is a metaphor for society’s collective journey through life, one that is shaped by political, social and personal forces. The journey might be that of the refugee fleeing conflict and environmental catastrophe, a perennial human predicament, but can also be viewed with regard to our own passage through daily life as we shoulder our various burdens and negotiate its challenges. The artists have utilised a range of approaches including sculpture, collage, drawing and print media to create a visually potent and thought-provoking spectacle.
