About
The show brought together eleven emerging artists whose work spans an impressive range of media and divergent theoretical approaches. The work presented covers a surprising amount of ground, touching on themes of abstraction, the interactive, gender, transgression, and evoking critical suggestions about cinematic technique, linear narrative and the value of art.
It was the 'surprising verve of the exhibition that extended not so much from a convenient disagreement between the works presented, but from the way in which they dissonantly complement each other' .[1].
The name 'Elements' itself refers to this wide range of approaches to executing and presenting each individuals work. The varying practices here emerge as stand alone creative departures, which don't depend on a common direction for structural support. The significance of this is how despite working daily in such close confines with each other, the artists collectively in 'Elements' have managed to develop distinctive independent oeuvres, setting them apart from both their peers and the wider span of current art practices.
