Working across mixed-media sculpture and ceramics, Kati Gorgenyi, Fran Romano and Melinda Brouwer have created an immersive and reflective experience that engages with notions of remembrance, memorialisation, and the transience of life. Gorgenyi investigates loss and memory; Romano explores the rituals and ephemera surrounding death, and Brouwer’s interest lies in death’s material nature.
On weekends, visitors can engage with the artworks and themes by making clay votives which will become part of the exhibition, developing into an ephemeral installation in the gallery courtyard to decompose.
