Open at the seams

14 February - 10 March 2008  

For this exhibition Pam-Grant produced mixed media sculptural works, using media such as calico cloth parchments, sewing pattern tissue, wallpaper, text and found objects, to name but a few. Conceptually, the work investigates the notion of a ‘box' as it transforms from ‘platform' to ‘stage', to ‘room', archiving fragmented interior landscapes  inside the form of the ‘specimen box'. Here the ‘specimen', the ephemeral memory, charged object or enlivened moment, is encased and brought up close for scrutiny and  visceral examination by the viewer. Extending the works from assemblage to a moving image projection, the artist crosses the lines that divide the disciplines with memorials that pay homage to the minutiae.
