Compressions of Being 

by Liz Butler

 

Exposed Series I, Liz Butler, 2013, ink on discarded 120 film backing paper, dimensions variable

 

An exhibition of works on the backing papers of used films. Blurred by universal and personal time and movement from the macro to micro; like superimposed photographs these images speak of semi-conscious glimpses of landscape and life.

 

Compression of Being is now showing in the Jean Sims Gallery until  21 July 2013.

The Third Space: intercultural crafting

 

The Third Space: intercultural crafting is an exhibition of work resulting from creative partnerships between five culturally and linguistically diverse craftspeople and five South Australian artists. The exhibition is an extension of Craftsouth’s Traditional Craft Skills Project.
