Michele Beevors works between the monstrous feminine and
commodity fetishism and has recently become interested in object oriented
ontologies.
Michele completed Masters Degrees at the ANU School of Art and
at Columbia University New York in the 1990s and is currently visiting Sydney
from the Otago Polytechnic School of Art in Dunedin, New Zealand, where
she now heads the Sculpture Department. Michele will be speaking about her
practice in general, with particular emphasis on her latest body of work, The Wreck
of Hope currently showing at the Forrester Gallery at Oamaro in New Zealand
until mid February. Michele will present images of her work and talk
about her intentions and processes, followed by discussion with the audience.
This is the first of an ongoing program of free artists' talks
at Articulate project space to which everyone is invited. It gives artists and
anyone interested in art the opportunity to see and hear how artworks are
contextualised within the artist's art practice and understanding of the world,
as well as providing opportunity to discuss directly with the artist.
Please RSVP if possible.
