This exhibition explores the richness of the imagination as an accomplice to knowledge. Invited by the Centre for Abstract+Non-Objective Art, 11 contemporary artists share objects that have relevance and relationship to their practice and development alongside their work.
The human imagination drives the material practice of art through medium and form, which will no doubt eventually manifest itself in the digital realm. This very complex synthesis re-informs and extends human inventiveness, but at the core of this reinvention is the object, presented in contrast with the subjective, in celebration of physicality.
The fourth exhibition of the Deakin University Centre for Abstract+Non-Objective Art, The Void: Visible being the inaugural in November 2017. Curated by Stephen Wickham and Leanne Willis.
