Strange Embrace

30 MAY – 19 JULY 2015

Strange Embrace is an exhibition resulting from five artists working in a variety of art forms to create artwork addressing the theme of “edges” or “comfort zones” with regard to interactions with strangers. Finding ourselves in odd or unusual situations with another human being can mean embarrassment, awkward silence, random exchanges or uncanny recognition. The works in Strange Embrace all explore the edges of what is comfortable with regard to social encounters. The exhibiting artists are: Cath Barcan, Anne Graham, Astra Howard, Daniel Kojta and Honi Ryan.
