Animal Mineral Spiritual Physical

Overview

A new exhibition is adorning that colourful Redfern haunt The Bearded Tit. Curator Chloe Wolifson has constructed Animal/Mineral/Spiritual/Physical around Joan Armatrading’s iconic 'Drop the Pilot' — making visual sense of this lyrically confusing song.

Each discreet section of the art space will be filled with an interpretation of the feel-good pop classic. The participating artists include: Lisa Sammut, Rebecca Gallo, Sarah Goffman and Lotte Schwerdfeger in collaboration with Louise Meuwissen.

As well as unearthing the rhythm behind the words, many of these practices play with found objects — fetishising them, recontextualising them and seeking out their active qualities. So pop along to The Tit this month and you’ll find and engaging set of musically inclined experiments with old and new objects.
