re-SATURATE
Grace Cossington Smith Gallery 2014
reSATURATEryb, 2014, is an exhibition about the way colour changes the meaning of artwork. The artists are: Julia Davis, Lisa Jones, Stephen Little, Tom Loveday, Jonny Niesche, Nuha Saad, Nike Savvas and Mark Titmarsh. The artists’ works are exhibited in spaces saturated with Bauhausian primary colours, red, yellow and blue. The colours of the artworks are changed to reveal new aesthetic, historical, political and social meanings. Rather than a simply a technical aspect of art, colour is revealed as an active critical device in the production and reception of contemporary art.
My contribution to the exhibition consisted of two works, shown below. I also assisted with the installation, technical aspects of the exhibition and curatorial writing for the catalogue, which can be found at https://www.academia.edu/106283075/GCSG_re_SATURATEryb_exhibition_Catalogue
