...sometimes the alphabet is ABJFHaaaGiLNrstyYCDETCF......and sometimes you get Nat, Lisa and Gary and mash them together (with a bit of cheap whiskey) in alphabetical order...linguistically speaking...
The non-sensical can be a relief from a world of strict cohesion. aaaGiLNrsty is a manifestation of trusting ones own process, intuition and instincts. In this group show Natalie Ellen-Eliza, Lisa Martin, and Gary Peters seek to reassert intuition as a valid and essential way of making art that is often sidelined in a critical art context.
A discussion with the artists will accompany the show on Saturday, March 24 at 2pm.
