unfurled

About

unfurled, is an exhibition concerning the physical transformation of an object and the various configurations it passes through. A print on paper is only the beginning. Forms progress, shapes emerge, patterns change and structures mutate. The work liberates material allowing it to be printed, embossed, folded, ripped, rolled, crushed, clasped. The display becomes paramount as the work appears to be still in motion. Where does one form finish and the next start? Olivia Bax's recent exhibitions include Claire Baily, Olivia Bax, Sarah Dornner (Part 3 of 3 projects by IFF for U8 Projects) Komaki, Japan; Connection Point, The Nunnery Gallery, London and a solo show in 2011 at MoorHouse, London, Structural Shift. Bax was recently selected to take part in the Triangle Workshop in Brooklyn, New York, in September this year. She currently works as a studio assistant for Sir Anthony Caro.
