<\/a>Kelly Cade,\u00a0Moss Dream<\/em>, photographic print<\/p>\nKelly Cade\u2019s conceptual\u00a0fall \u25cf stream \u25cf\u009f wake<\/em>\u00a0finds the artist fusing psychological ponderings with artistic impulses. Cade\u2019s installation visualizes\u00a0 \u201cwater dreams,\u201d which are unrestrained, constantly shifting streams with no formal beginning or end point, and without any clearly defined meaning or purpose. Furthermore, the artist examines how images can be indicative of subliminal impressions, fashioning her work around psychoanalytic underpinnings. The viewer is called to stare at these painterly fragments and contemplate the randomness of thoughts and dreams, and how our cerebral impulses slide down a proverbial stream that continually renews itself.<\/p>\n Candida Girling\u2019s Shifting Landscapes<\/em> explores the notion of the contemporary landscape in a world so thoroughly altered by human intervention. Using a kaleidoscopic multi-media approach that includes ink drawings, wood etching and laser cut sculpture; Girling vividly recreates the modification of natural settings through technological means. Here, the artist recalls the entropic work of Robert Smithson, who similarly focused his efforts on mankind\u2019s irreversible mediation on our environmental surroundings. While Smithson\u2019s work was monumental and site-specific, Girling tones down the ambitions of her land art forebear in favour of something quainter and more institutionally appropriate with these peculiar objects.<\/p>\n<\/a>Installation view of Kelly Cade,\u00a0fall\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0stream\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0wake<\/em>, photographic print installation<\/p>\n
