On Silent Mode

Stone, concrete, thread and oil:
Each leads back to a source
Where form disappears,
Where the quiet speaks,
Where old branches splinter,
and the new word is gleaned.

- Joan Avery - Zedlacher

26 June 2014 – Shifting Sands

Cinema lovers may remember the terrifying scene in David Lean’s classic Lawrence of Arabia when
Lawrence’s faithful guide across the desert gets swallowed by a sand dune. Every time he grasps at
what appears to be stable ground, the sand shifts and collapses. From this hazardous phenomenon
comes the English expression “shifting sands” – a metaphor often used to describe a situation that
changes so constantly and rapidly that it frustrates all attempts to deal with it or even to understand it.
In this exhibition, seven young artists have endeavored to depict the extreme instability that now seems
to confront us at every turn. It’s a bit of a paradox, given that the images themselves are static, but
that’s part of the contemplative pleasure we hope the viewer will experience.

- John Leake (a freelance author who has written extensively about the themes of deception and unforeseen consequences)
