Never a Cross Word
Jacqueline Bradley
ANCA Gallery, ACT1 Rosevear Place, Dickson
20th - 31st May 2009, Wednesday –Sunday, 12-5pm
Never a Cross Word was my first large scale solo exhibition. ANCA (Australian National Capital Artists) is a great gallery to exhibit at, and the exhibition was a fantastic experience. When developing these sculptural and installed works I was concerned with making a body of work which encompassed large and small, intimate and overwhelming. I wanted to hint at a connection between the lived-in home and lived-in body by using household objects and building materials including windows, picture-rails, skirting boards and wallpaper in conjunction with fabricated elements. These works explore something fantastic happening in ordinary spaces, windows that breathe like lungs or walls that fold into corners, investigating the delineation between internal and external, active and inanimate, disclosure and secrecy. Never a cross word was an exploration of intrigue and whimsy in which the construction of memories, truths and perception are mediated by a living, breathing home.
