Jacky Redgate, HOLD ON #4, 2019-20, pigment ink on fabric, 197 x 203 cm
JACKY REDGATE - HOLD ON opens this Saturday 7 March at Geelong Gallery. This major solo exhibition coincides with PHOTO2020, the International Festival of Photography.
Jacky Redgate—HOLD ON will present the most recent iteration of Redgate's mirror work in its entirety that reflects how, while continuing to make her experimental ‘hybrid' mirror works over the past ten years, Redgate has been recalling and introducing into her work the autobiographical images and subjects of her juvenilia. Embodying a cathexis on emotionally laden subjects, these photographs tease with a combination of abstraction and autobiographical mirroring that seemingly contradicts the Cartesian sobriety of her well known ‘impersonal’ works.
The exhibition runs until 17 May.
