Marnie Edmiston: Everything Is a Distraction
Stay focused. See this.
Overview
How can we streamline our thoughts, ambitions and life away from the objects that tend to drive them? Is meditation the answer? Or pained focus? Or even street-grade Ritalin.
Marnie Edmiston, a visual artist based in Melbourne, aims to explore this question the best she can in her exhibition Everything Is a Distraction. Her practice tends to include the overlap and envelopment of language, text and image, with this work including sculpture, video, photography and drawing to explore this theme in as many means as possible. Through appropriation and editing, refocusing and repetition of styles, genres, gestures and distortions, the pieces in this exhibition send out a mixed message of infinite meanings and tangents.
This showcase opens at Metro Arts on March 19, with the artist talk on April 4. Make a focused goal of going.
