A Magnificent World

Posted: 21 Feb 2012


The exhibition features paintings, linocuts and sculptures by Pia Bennett and Joshua Fitzpatrick that evoke the beauty and bestiality of a bygone world. Artist Thea Costantino presents drawings as well as a sculptural work that distort historical imagery and considers the medieval experience of wonder. Costantino also presents a limited edition artist book containing stories as part of her body of work. Anna Nazzari has created pyrographic drawings by burning onto wood and references medieval styles in her production of a series of bizarre vampire hybrid animals.

Collectively the artist’s work reflects on the history of, and continuing quest for, human understanding of our complex environment through art, simultaneously questioning our very comprehension of such intelligible mysteries.
