 Landscape of Sustenance  

   JENNIFER DICKENS & PETER HJORT 

 

Tasmanian artists, Jennifer Dickens (Photo media)  & Peter Hjort (Sculpture) come together in an exhibition titled, Landscape of Sustenance.  The works coexist in the artists’ attachment to the metaphoric power of objects in the domestic landscape. The contemplative works serve as an industry of memory.

Artists' statements:

Jennifer Dickens –
Lint: A soft material for dressing wounds.
Lint: A process of disposal, distance and denial.
My impetus to build this metaphoric body of work is to examine histories that are found in the traces of residue from shifting relationships.
When we are vulnerable, sentimentality is a prominent disposition and we can be drawn to the most insignificant things. Affection can be found in the intimate spaces of dust, fluff and decomposing plants. The personal provenance feeds our existential anxieties, which negates any utilitarian value. Although functionality is impaired from typical use, it is the emotional attachment that provides intimacy and symbolic importance.
Opportunities arise for us to dwell in sentimentality through sensory experiences where emotional attachment provides a solace for us to ponder the shifting values in our immediacy.
If we are to truly embrace our temporality, perhaps we can alter our patterns we have formed in our cluttered branded lives and value more a world beyond utility.

Peter Hjort -

‘After nearly 37 years of professional practice creativity still feeds my soul and sustains my artistic life. In this exhibition I bring you glimpses of the sweeping landscape of my mind. I invite you to follow my journey and enjoy your experience’.

Artwork from this exhibition is no longer available to purchase.
