"Lore"
"In English, Lore has a double meaning:
n. Tradition
A body of traditions and knowledge on a subject or held by a particular group, typically passed from person to person by word of mouth.
n. Lore
The surface on each side of a bird's head between the eye and the upper base of the beak, or between the eye and nostril in snakes.
“An instinctive response to any condition is honest and devoid of any burden of culture. Such intuition is immediate in time and space. This detachment allows awareness and freedom. The endeavour is to present an environment that is elemental and sensorial, a field of varying conditions curated from our observations of everyday life. These conditions are formed to instigate and negotiate inside and outside. The pieces independently and collectively evoke indeterminate experiences. The idea is not to guide viewers through a specific process, but to allow discoveries through visual layers. The act of making is embodied, both viscerally and physically, in the works. We hope this then emanates through the experience of these objects. The embedded energy of these objects has a potential to resonate with that of their observers. The works remain neutral and become containers of embodied energy - of thinking, making and seeing. All these conditions defy their actual purpose and presence. They exceed their everyday existence and are neither contained nor in-finite in their presence or absence.”
