Our house (white indices)

Trenton Garratt

 

November 20 – December 6 2008 

Opening Party November 19, 6 pm
Artist Talk November 29, 2 pm

 

 

 

 

In Our house (white indices) Auckland artist Trenton Garratt’s small works, ranging from dust-sized particles to larger ceramic pieces, will be disseminated throughout the Enjoy gallery. This ‘mess’ is presented as a calculated and formal scattering spreading from a source. The box that Garratt has employed as the source for the mess is a found object, written on its lid is: tapes 2nd bedroom.

Garratt notes: “In making the ceramic objects I am relying on connotations reckoned from the box: private activities, obsessions, repetition, accumulation, collection…”

 

This new installation is tied in with some of Garratt’s recent studio-based work that has involved drawing, photography, painting and ceramics and includes a selection of work recently completed in Auckland and New York. The artist will present a talk in the gallery 2pm, 29 November; we hope you can join us!
