The Sum of All Things?
Date
10 January 2012 - 12 February 2012
Place
QUT Art Museum, Brisbane, Qld
Description

Courtney Coombs’ The sum of all things? explores the symbolic potential of materials, words and forms. Utilising various combinations and recontextualisations of found objects – most often domestic – Coombs resists making grand gestures to instead focus on presenting tentative forms that are filled with intensely personal, expansive and at times, contradictory ideas.
