Description

The sound of the Box Being Made represented an extension of David O’ Halloran’s investigation into the idea, and the framing devices, of the museum/gallery. The show consisted of funkily polychromatic wooden volumes that were at the same time both plinths and vitrines, grouped and arranged about the space in a way that reinforced their architectonic and sculptural qualities and their relations to the modernist white cube that housed them, thus setting up tensions of expectation and context.

Description

An installation of seductive, stark, graphic paintings intended as signs or 'surrogates’ that deputise for works of art. The paintings are details of a larger system that we all share. They require our intervention for the construction of meaning.
