Excerpt from the exhibition essay by Kate Nodrum:

‘The specific inspiration for this series of works was a visit to the Church of St. Bernadette du Banlay, an example of Brutalist architecture built in 1966 and designed by Paul Virilio and Claude Parent. The founding principle of the design was the pair’s theory of the ‘Fonction Oblique’, whereby the convention of building on the horizontal or vertical is literally broken by sending the architectural lines of a building off the diagonal or by blocking them all together. The sense of sudden jarring or disorientation that this produces is exemplified at St Bernadette and translates directly into Samara’s existing practice of devising geometric formations that are themselves Oblique, fractured, and yet resolved. On her visit the artist studied and photographed the interior and exterior of the church throughout the day. These photos were converted into monochrome line drawings, then made into studies in aluminium sheeting; each line, fold and hole in the study referring to a wall, shadow or void in the building. For the final works, made of custom-cut plywood, the artist undertook a painstaking process of trial and error to select a colour and application technique for each plane of the composition that would produce just the right balance of movement and tension, but also harmony.'

Michael Cusack has been exhibiting at Martin Browne Contemporary since 2004. This latest exhibition continues Cusack’s restrained exploration of shape and colour, representative, perhaps, of memory and relations. Poetry as both a formal reference and conceptual play informs the work.

Originally from Dublin, Cusack emigrated to Australia in 1982 and currently has a studio in Mullumbimby, NSW. He recently completed a Master of Visual Arts from Griffth University, Brisbane.

Found Acorn

Found acorn

My grandmother

I picked up this acorn fallen from the same tree as I did out with my grandmother 50 years ago. She said ‘if you carry an acorn in your purse you will never run out of money’. My grandmother grew up during the suffragette movement. I grew up during the women’s liberation movement. Not once in my childhood in my home or at a school did I feel inferior or that I could not do anything I wanted. It took greater society to impose those feelings on me particularly in the last 15 years. Thank goodness there is another upsurge. #suffragette #womensliberationmovement #metoo
