The Lock-Up
90 Hunter Street, Newcastle 2300. (02) 4925-2265. Wed-Sat 10.00 to 4.00, Sun 11.00 to 3.00. Dec 7 to Jan 26, 2020 . Water is an element always on the cusp of transformation (moving between vapour, liquid and ice), but it is also an element with a slipperiness that makes it difficult to define. , curated by Meryl Ryan and Naomi Riddle, takes water as its defining feature. Moving between video, installation, photography and painting, this exhibition rethinks water as an environment, as a site of escape, as an emotional state,and as a necessity for survival. Butis also an elegy. That is, the works contained in this exhibition speak to the impending ecological crisis, and a landscape increasingly defined by an absence of water rather than its surplus.
