Ash, Needle, Pencil, Match

Overview

You are invited to step inside a mysterious world created by artists Glen Skien and Tachika Yokota. Held at The Hold Artspace, Ash, needle, pencil, match is a creative exhibition that explores the process of hand-made objects.

Skien and Yokota have focused on the artistic process of creating and transforming every day objects into something special. Each artist has retained the history that is wrapped up within familiar household objects as they breathe new life into their meaning and form. Both Skien and Yokota use a variety of media to express their artistic vision.

Both artists have impressive resumes. Skien is an associate lecturer in printmaking at Griffith University Queensland College of Art where he is also competing his Doctorate in Visual Arts. Yokota has recently returned to Australia after travelling Europe for six months. Before she set off on her adventures, she completed her Honours Degree in Photography.

The opening evening will be held on Friday 8 August from 6-9pm.
