FINDINGS – EXHIBITION AT TROCADERO

Findings is an exhibition of 74 images of hand gloves gleaned from fence posts, footpaths and roads while riding my bike to and from work in the inner city of Melbourne over the last year.

Lost, discarded or left behind, the gloves speak of human ownership – remnants of routines and actions, and marked with creases, stains and deterioration – each with their own story to tell. 

Each drawing is rendered using a combination of charcoal, conte pastel, graphite, gouache and enamel on paper.

The exhibition runs until March 19, 2011 at Trocadero Artspace.

LOST PROPERTY

(Gloves series, 2010)

Lost Property is an ongoing series of drawings of articles, lost, discarded or left behind, which trace routine trajectories and map passages of time. This exhibition of drawings represent 18 of the 55 gloves found while riding my bike between home and work from June to October this year. The exhibition has been extended to December 31.
