Gallery 3

Sivaan Lansdowne Walker

Friday 25 March - Sunday 10 April 2022

Being there is a third iteration of Sivaan Lansdowne Walker’s ‘Being’ series. Following on from Being nothing and Being here, this solo exhibition continues an exploration of the meaning of being within the world. Dust is used as a metaphor for indeterminacy, inevitability, and human remains. It is a material more inevitable than ourselves, yet the power in the ritual of removal remains more profound. This installation takes the shape of butterfly wings, inspired by the story of Psyche. With metamorphosis and transformation in mind, there seems to be something incompatible with the human soul, ways of thinking, and the reality of our political and social world.
