The slippery lines that mark out boundaries
between categories come under scrutiny in the two solo shows presented
for June at Stockroom Gallery.
Kent Wilson
constructs ambiguous instruments from stone and wood for his exhibition
in Gallery One. Under banners charged with associations of collective
representation, traditional materials are worked into symbolic totems
that slide between forms of equipment, weapon and artifact. not dissimilar is an urgent embrace of earthly matter in the service of cultural engagement and open speculation.
Winner of the inaugural Stockroom Prize for Honours students at La Trobe University, Catherine Shields explores the cultural, legal and physical boundaries of geographic spaces for her exhibition in Gallery Two. In Relation to-
is an investigation into territories of negotiation between the
psychological, the sexual and the social. Using walking as process the
artist attempts to recast memory into the static space of the gallery.
