People Like Us and Love and Loss
Adma Brozinski and Elizabeth Nigol
May 30 - June 27, 2008
Opening Friday 30th May 6 - 9pm
The two series, "People like us" by Adam Brozinski and "Love and Loss" by Elizabeth Nigol capture a moment of the subject's lives to explore the human condition in showing parallel representations of depth and surface. In particular, the apathy and dissent felt as we realize our helplessness and inability to be free. This is not a defeatist statement, but a reflection of the distractions and superficialities people consume themselves with, as we all grow and discover our authentic selves.

The Golden Pigeon
Sokina Guillemot
May 30 – June 27, 2008
Opening Friday 30th May 6 - 9pm
"The Golden Pigeon" is an ode to my journeys spent away from home. My
meetings with strong women and unique characters are blooming through
multicultural memories and street art influences. Mixing lost love
stories, freedom, strength and innocence, my wings are growing without
loosing a deep conscience of today’s politics on people. Here are my
icons of a paradoxical world.

Ambush
Shini Pararajasingham & Peter Coyle
May 30 – June 27, 2008
Opening Friday 30th May 6 - 9pm
Shini Pararajasingham's creative practice constantly revolves around feminist issues as she collaborates with Peter Coyle in "Am-Bush". This found object-based installation not only comments on our current state of emergency due to various erroneous decisions by the Bush Administration, but also remarks on gender reactions to violence, warfare, and peace. Women's biology and-or habitual social assignments as mothers and caretakers position women against the violence of war as a means of settling disputes, and help them to develop a politically viable standpoint on war, peace, and militaristic methods. "Am-Bush", which phallically denotes the male, shows links between masculinity and the appeal of war-making as a means of conflict-management. "Am-Bush" explodes satire and cynicism. |
