Grant Vercoe: Manhattan and the merging of Modernism
Louise McAlpine: Hapticivism: haptic + activism - An Artistic Imperative
Opening: Saturday 18 April at 2pm
As an object maker, the media Louise McAlpine creates with are mainly of a textile nature. The touch sense is the “curator” in the studio, negotiating the other senses and the final word rests with “touch”. Here, in her Masters exhibition, the visual and haptic senses combine to create a handcrafted oeuvre. McAlpine’s work seeks to interrupt experience and replace it with a more sensual alternative, one which questions temporality and existence.
Please join us to celebrate at the opening. Entry is free, all are welcome and refreshments will be served.
