About
TREVOR SMITH: BEHIND THE CURTAINS (HINTER DEN VORHÄNGEN)Michael Reid Berlin, 8 November – 14 December 2019
Trevor Smith pushes the boundaries in construction and design with crochet as the primary medium. With a strong following in Australia, Michael Reid Sydney + Berlin are pleased to present the artists first solo exhibition in Europe.
„Behind the Curtains“, pays homage to the everyday common objects in use in the second half of the 20th century, particularly the years of a divided Germany between the late 1940s and 1990. Inspired by the collections of the Deutsche Demokratische Republik (DDR) Museum in Berlin, the crochet sculptures are an interpretation of the common, the domestic and the everyday. The sculptures evoke nostalgia, memories, a sense of connection, and often a response to the humour in the work.
