weaving WILDerness

pattie beerens + Rory Daniel

weaving WILDerness was a spontaneous common, in an unexpected place, woven from an entanglement of earths, sprigs and textiles. At night projections illuminated often unseen expressions of vitality, disguised in fragility, ephermerality, and aging.

artists

pattie beerens

With an intimate sense of relatedness with clay – with earth – with soil - with mud - I participate in performances of ‘mattering’ – material enactments of fluxing, flowing, mixing, mutating and movement. 

Rory Daniel

Rory is an Australian lens-based visual artist who investigates the posthuman condition using photography, moving images, and performance.

He is interested in how photography is used as illusion and delusion,

the threshold between man and animal, and how these impact the destiny of the human species.

accessibility

The entrance to Smith + Gertrude is at street level and can be accessed easily from the footpath. However, there are steps within the gallery which will inhibit full access to the viewing space.
