‘archival auras’ brings together a series of interrelated works that comprise sculptural installations, prints, drawings and artist’s books by Gina DeCagna.
About
The exhibition features three series – Follow the American Dream; Self Portrait in a Convex Mirror and From Seeds Come Civilizations, – all made between 2013 and 2022. The works all look at ways to question historical interpretations, integrating creative writing practices and visual art. The selection of works uses various media and found materials, including paper receipts, complementary artist books, charcoal and graphite. Through these series the artist is interested in renegotiating and dissecting common interpretations, experimenting through acts of creative writing, collage techniques, and examinations of archival texts and documents.
The exhibition includes a free artist talk on Saturday 5 March 2022, 2pm. All welcome. Just turn up.
