Sensing Place, Three Responses: Andrew Mackenzie, Helen Carnac & David Gates

We are delighted to release the 3rd edition of our series of exhibition publications, a companion to our first exhibition of 2023: 'Sensing Place, Three Responses', opening on the 24th of February running until the 15th of April. 

 

The catalogue includes a wonderful essay from independent lecturer, artist and researcher Dr Iain Biggs RWA and a selection of works and sources from the artists with their commentraries and observations. 

 

The show brings together David Gates' architectural interrogations of the furniture object, Helen Carnac’s ostensibly fragile constructions of vitreous enamel fused to copper and Andrew Mackenzie’s haunting landscape paintings capturing the entanglements of the anthropocene in the Scottish wild. Each through their divergent practice express their preoccupations with place, perspectives, planes of construction; in making and viewing, human and organic. Each problematise and play with these interlocking ways of seeing and being. The work collectively is; as Robert Macfarlane wrote in an earlier catalogue on Mackenzie’s work, essentially the ‘between’.
