Unravelling Encounters

• Visual art

South Australia • World Premiere

Featuring Lucia Dohrmann, Sonja Porcaro, Nicole Clift and Meng Zhang

Curated by Suzanne Close

Opening: Thursday 23 February at 6 PM

To unravel is to investigate that which is perplexing, entangled and mysterious.

The exhibition proposes a series of dialogues between the artworks as a way of unravelling their potential insights. Each artist has a nuanced material language that reveals the physical processes of undoing, remaking, gathering and unfolding. Through our collective unravelling, we have the potential to develop a deeper perception of ourselves and weave new narratives
