To the birds/Man digging

Two distinct exhibitions that, side-by-side, explore what it is to make paintings and what it is to make exhibitions. Both shows are brought together by painter and exhibition-maker Dan Howard-Birt who, in to the birds has gathered small paintings – his own and artworks by other painters – to fill a series of holes, cut into the surfaces of his own paintings; and in MAN DIGGING he uses spade-work as a metaphor for thinking about the actions and processes that form the rhythms of other painters’ studio work.
Lorna Robertson presents two works as part of the MAN DIGGING exhibition. For more information, please visit the link below.
