To Be : 2D & 3 D is a new art exhibition at Framed on Fifth celebrating the work of two exceptional contemporary local artists. Experience the vibrant, abstract paintings of Kat Lakeman painter, alive with bold colour and layered rice paper collage that create rich texture and movement. The 3-D portion, Gordon Pengilly brings an intimate collection of clay sculptures—small-scale works exploring abstract figurative forms and pure abstraction with quiet strength and presence. The show runs from March 3 – 28. Join us for the art reception Friday March 6 from6:30 – 9:00pm.
Working with institutional, personal, fictional and/or speculative archives, participants are invited to think critically about the archive as a method or 'technology' for re-storying social and cultural narratives. Themes may include, but are not limited to: familial/ancestral lineages and cultural inheritance, oral histories, micro-histories, absence, amnesia, re-memory.
