The themes found in the works of CON (TEXT) range from an appreciation of the visual, graphic forms of text itself and the action of writing in Cecilia Biagini’s work to the fleeting moments of clarity formed by it in Ethel Shipton’s. Text has the power to birth both transient and lasting images in the minds of those who view it; its presence in visual works of art pulls viewers in and asks them to consider the relationship between the image and the bits of language simultaneously. The eight artists in this exhibition, with their diverse approaches to artmaking and conceptual themes, are unified by their use of this element.
