FER A L 4: A rticulate project space, 30 January -‐ 1 Fe b ru ary, 2 0 1 5 FERAL is a progressive, overlapping exhibition designed for artists to experiment with placement of artwork in an architectural space that is already altered by the earlier installation of other artists' work, and which will be altered again when another group replaces that earlier installation. It is called FERAL because its progressive overlapping nature is a slightly feral form of exhibition practice, and it sounds like FAIR ISLE, the similar 2014 version. The FERAL/FAIR-‐ISLE project is part of the broader Articulate interest in the relationships artworks form with their locations. The project does this by focusing in particular on the contribution that the changing installation of artworks make to the constitution of a site. The whole FERAL project will be open Friday -‐ Sunday 11-‐5pm between 9 January -‐ 8 February 2015. Each of its five weeks will show different combinations of about twenty works. The opening events are Fridays 9, 16, 23 + 30 January and 6 February at 6-‐8pm. Dominic Byrne Trigger Warning 2015 Timed air dispenser, home-‐made pepper spray. 0402 172 606 www.dominicbyrne.net Sue Callanan, In the space of a breath: device for circulating air 2015, Performance on opening nights. Green air conditioning duct, 6 x 0.6 x 0.5m, is a commercial product for circulating air. The inhabitation of the product by a performer renders its utilitarian function. At other times it flops, like a spent breath Andrew Christie Echo 2015 Basketball hoops Dimensions variable. Echo extends from Christie’s research which examines the tensions of competing universalities often brought upon by shifts in migration, translation, and notions of hybridity. A more open-‐ended piece than previous works, it allows for the notions of play, humour and particularly failure to interrogate the mechanisms that keep these aversions active in daily life. Richard Dunn Untitled#1-‐6 2014 Acrylic on Ply, 29x29x4.5cm. These wall sculptures/painting, with wrap around colour and different levels and hidden spaces could be freestanding Sarah Fitzgerald Arch 2015 MDF, acrylic paint, brick. This work contrasts the elegant form of an arch with the solidity of the post and beam structure of the gallery space. Aude Fondard Dolly’s mad 2015 Performance, or what happens when sweet devices start to go wrong. Sitting Pretty 2015 Text-‐based performance. Aims to highlight how the represented, be it a muse, cherished object or sublime landscape, can become captive of the gaze of the viewer.
[email protected] Veronica Habib I Love What You Have Done With Your Hair, Underwear Brief, G-‐string and Dress 2015 Suspended clothing, Human hair. The work deals with the codes and perceptions within clothing in relations to the notions of shame, body image and sexuality. The artwork utilizes hair as clothing is made from desirable materials such as fur and wool which are socially acceptable animal byproducts, whereas human hair carries a negative stigma. The artwork challenges perceptions of hair and hygiene as well as the perceptions towards body hair. Richard Kean Aural Bow 2014 Silver Ash, piano wire, Dimensions variable $450 Kate MacKay Crochet Cubes – FERAL 2014/15 yarn, foam 240x60x13cm. A construction of cubes from fragments of yarns where the random scraps of colour accumulate in the construction of the screen. kate.mackay.blogspot.com.au Veronica Habib Doubling2014 McDonalds work shirts. The Surrealist notion of 'Doubling' is a technique used to fracture and destabilize an object/image. The uncanny shudder felt from duplication also draws on a crisis of identity of divisions of the self (Unconscious/conscious and/or binary of reality/illusion)
Christine Myerscough Salvation 2015 fishing net, embroidery hoops, photographs. This is one of a series of works in progress dealing with the Australian landscape. Moments in time, traces of nature, light and shadows are caught and preserved in photographs. As we tread heavily on the land, plundering its resources, the question of what we value most is becoming crucial.
[email protected] Melissa Jane Palmer Construction 2014 Marble laminate, plywood, steel bracket. Instilled with no functional purpose, I contradict the normal applied and ornamental uses of architectural material within this work. With no material hierarchy the distinction between the wall, frame and surface dissipate, to enable the work to engage as a site for the reconfiguration of architectural space. Katya Peteskaya Cycle of a full breath, Clock count down, The line of thought, 2015 Synthetic polymer paint on paper. Reflecting on alterations by other fellow artists to the space, I found three repeated basic elements – breath, time and thought. As a painter I used a brush mark as my intervention. The experimental works attempt to capture breath, time and thought in a brush mark.

Room’s light through a line solar cells, elastic, electronics 2015. www.jannahquill.com Elizabeth Rankin Thin Ice 2014 Projection of animated water colour drawings. Thin Ice refers to the fragility of life and yet our determination to enjoy and celebrate it. My animation of the dance drawings relies upon sequences of narrative. The images were repeated and reversed and the process accelerated to produce dance movement. A new story developed out of this process. Ambrose Reisch RECALL 2015 Card, mirror double-‐sided tape.

The scattered fabric masks are placed together and filled with produce from local market. www.phaptawansuwannakudt.com Yoshi Takahashi Candy Box 2015 Acrylic on timber. This work concerned with light, reflection, chance and system. The order of cubes were determined randomly yet they were placed in the grid according to order. www.yoshitakahashi.com Judith Torzillo Our Time Is Made of Particles: Uncertain and Entangled 2014 Brass. This work responds to the definition of Spacetime found in quantum mechanics, particularly the symmetry and spin described in particle behaviour. The uncertainty principal and quantum entanglement inform the structure of each brass 'particle' and their relationships en masse. Each particle in the 173 piece series is handmade, unique and numbered. www.judithtorzillo.com 1 particle: $60, 2 particles: $100, 4 particles $180. Jeff Wood Painting Machine 2014. As a painter my practice explores the bond between art and technology through experimentation. Using ready-‐made objects I build machines that paint and draw and work as an extension of self.
