Ted O’Donnell + Vicki Lee: Asphyxiate
The Sydney-based duo examine their ongoing obsession with the rhythm of nature.
Overview
"Porphyria worshipped me; surprise
Made my heart swell, and still it grew
While I debated what to do."
Porphyria's Lover by Robert Browning "tells the story of an obsessed lover and an escalation of desire that ends in passionate tragedy", according to Sydney-based artists Ted O'Donnell and Vicki Lee. Inspired by the woeful words of Browning, Lee and O'Donnell have created Asphyxiate, their latest exhibition at Paddington's Comber Street Gallery.
The show comprises of a collection of 12 images and two one-off paintings, focusing on the artists' ongoing obsession with the rhythm and movement of nature. Following on from their last exhibition, IS/WET, Asphyxiate explores the sensuality of flora promises a darker and more seductive approach this time around.
Opening on November 19 Comber Street Gallery, the show has a short run until November 23. Looking to buy? Works will be priced from $1000 to $2000/pc with editions of 10 and 20.
