The specific focus of Singe’s current art practice is to discover how the strategic utilization of energy within an art practice can be developed into a language/strategy/methodology capable of actively responding to the anxiety surrounding climate change.
Mike Singe is Masters graduate from the Tasmanian School of Art. Following on from his inclusion in the “Lookout” exhibition at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (2010), “Warm Up” is Singe’s first solo exhibition in Tasmania (2010), having moved to Hobart from Western Australia in late 2008. Singe’s has a fascination for curious ways of capturing energy (and carbon dioxide) and of human breath for instance: Wind turbines strategically positioned to test the power of divine intervention, solar cells caught in a perpetual state of surrender and a rather large weather balloon.
