As the Sleeper Wakes
Date
5 May 2016 - 28 May 2016
Place
Metro Gallery, 1214 High Street Armadale VIC 3143, Australia
Description

White’s 13 new paintings explore themes of gender, violence and identity within modernist Japanese, European and Australian cultures.

The paintings draw upon the intersection of technology and the world of science fiction literature. White draws parallels with themes of revolt and social unrest from the Wellian novel ‘The Sleeper Awakes’ and juxtaposes them with today’s sense of interconnectedness and social mobility.
