Passed Failures : Ben Rak

I am pleased to invite you to my upcoming solo exhibition Passed Failures at Bondi Pavilion Gallery. The opening event will take place on Wednesday, August 21st between 6-8pm.

Passed Failures is an attempt to develop a conceptual, visual language, which metaphorically explores the identity politics of otherness and the act of “passing” as somebody else.

Archival Jelly
Damian Dillon | Nina Juniper
exhibition
15 August – 1 September 2019
opening night
Wednesday 14 August 2019, 6 – 8 pm

Archival Jelly explores the dislocated edges of Australia’s landscape – specifically the urban/nature divide through the copy/archive. Print based processes are utilised to engage with repetition to both degrade and magnify the spectrality of these spaces as viewed through the lens of pictorial representation.
