Using mostly traditional mediums, the nuances of visual language are manipulated in playful ways to open up new angles of meaning and interpretation.
The Grammar of Glitch takes a number of ideas more commonly associated with science and evolutionary biology and applies them to contemporary art.
Whether through fragmentation of the visual field in landscape drawing or the distorted forms of the sculptural figure, this exhibition offers ways of understanding how perceived problems or glitches can produce creative ends.
The free exhibition opens to the public on Thursday, July 26, 5:30-7pm with light refreshments. Proudly supported by Mandurang Valley Wines, the exhibition runs until September 1.
