Off Centre

Exhibition, Drogheda Art Centre (2016)

Off Centre is an exhibition of small artworks made of commonplace items, found material, collage, lighting etc. There are references to other works, such as Man Ray’s spiked iron – Cadeau (1921). The exhibition required a sideways move in the interest of producing new 3D pieces. Also relevant is the element of humour. An earlier video work called Cornerspace (2014) provided the starting point. In the video images of real spaces are intercut with fictitious ones so as to disrupt scale and blur boundaries between reality and illusion.

Eight works of variable scale and media, 2016
