Of Mere Being is an exploration of the disconnectedness that has permeated human relationships across the last few years. It is both a meditation on that disconnection and a space for seeking respite from its pervasive tentacles.

About

In Room one, 120 collages and 120 hand-painted golden blocks offer a visual caesura and space for emotional and intellectual solace. The collages draw on the Dada and Surrealist movements of the early twentieth century, in their aesthetics as well as in their explorations of the unexpected in the everyday. In Room Two hang 14 large mixed-media paintings best described as visual stories where humour and joy sit side-by-side with the shadows they cast. 

Of Mere Being is an exhibition that speaks to both the artist’s interior worlds and the world at large. On the walls between the works, hand-written in graphite, are poems that have inspired Gory as she worked, offering her provocation and respite in equal measure.
