Materiality Unseen
Often an exhibition is about showcasing a new 'body of work'.
This is quite an apt description. Much like the body, the artwork is dressed to it's best is presented for the public to see - any naked insecurities are covered up. The underlying processes, growth, mental workings, and multiple [organ]isation systems that work together in order to produce that said a body of work are concealed.
'Materiality' exhibition and artists shows this 'physical body' of artwork, but it also comments on the unseen aspects which go into bringing the work to life. It discusses the multiple processes that take place beneath the surface, mentally, financially and logistically in order to deliver an exhibition or further one's creative career.
