Overview
Tucked away in a picturesque and seemingly peaceful corner of Woolloomooloo is an experimental energy waiting to be unleashed at Artspace, with two equally brilliant but new exhibitions.
TRACE Collective hail from Cardiff, and are as self-reflexive as they come. They approach art as a performative process, reusing and re-examining the records and detrius of the creative process, which is then regurgitated in a new form. This particular exhibition explores departure, arrival and colonialism in Old and New South Wales.
Deborah Petrovich also approaches art as performance and in this video installation, the audience is the focus of the work. Petrovich walks in the footsteps of Artaud, and shares his determination to shatter illusions, but transposes this from theatre into new media. Be ready to leave all expectations and assumptions at the door.
