Michaye Boulter & Jon Eiseman
Cusp
1 – 19 December 2020
Arthouse Gallery
In the complex merging of opposites – day and night, dreams and reality – Boulter and Eiseman together contemplate the environmental and cultural timbres of the present landscape. A subtle, shadowy consideration in these works is the colonial ingestion of the natural world. In their shared focus on the voyage – personal and historical – both artists look towards the darkness, opening up dialogues about what our journey forward into unchartered waters might look like. Positioning us on the cusp of new beginnings, there is an offering of hope in these psychological landscapes as we confront the nexus at which dark and light meet, where one can take flight towards the light or penetrate deeper into the shadows.
