The Ineluctable Modality of the Visible
Exhibition at Gallery 3, St Paul St.
Artists: Harriet Stockman, Layne Waerea and Deborah Rundle
Ineluctable Modality of the Visible 1
Well, that was James, but what about Gertrude? She invites us to consider that ‘all of this is not ordinary, not unordered in not resembling.’2 Both would have us turn our concern to knowing. And so we do.
Eschewing formal stability and social constraint, the artists in this exhibition invite the audience to question the role of certainty. Propositional and diverse, we engage with notions of disorder, transgression and displacement.
1 James Joyce, Ulysses, 1922
2 Gertrude Stein, Tender Buttons, 1914
