Kenzee Patterson

Overview

Here is the object. Here is you in front of the object. Here is a kind of click. It's not the audible kind, it's the one that happens in your head when a concept suddenly reveals itself in a material form. I'm not sure how he does it but Kenzee Patterson is an artist who responds to the world around him with honesty, intelligence and humor — an artist who manages to produce these, for lack of better word, clicks.

For his first solo show at Darren Knight Gallery, Kenzee will be exhibiting The Camden Valley Way, a party of sculptures created in response to the artist's recent car journey's through regional NSW and suburban south-western Sydney. By the looks of it the work appears to be alive, possess a sense of wit and retain a certain mysterious clarity that could only come from the attractions of the road; housing estates, failed theme parks and home-made artifacts. All things aside, and by dint of promising you too much, this is sculpture worth seeing.
