Collaboration with Annelies Jahn
|
Tethered is a collaborative exhibition of artworks by Annelies Jahn and Jane Burton Taylor. It opens Wednesday 6th April and runs to Sunday 1st May. The artists are invigilating Wednesday to Sundays 10am to 4pm at Incinerator Art Space, 2 Small Street, Willoughby.
Tethered investigates the natural world within the legacy of colonisation. Jahn and Burton Taylor work within the historic context of Land Art. They explore three New South Wales sites, including a harbour front park (within the Willoughby precinct), acknowledging traditional custodians and making artworks in response to the layered history revealed within these near pristine stretches of bush.
The artists aim to sensitise themselves and others to the landscape and the specifics of a given place. They have titled the exhibition Tethered, to acknowledge the inevitably intimate and interdependent relationship we share with the land and its indigenous flora and fauna.
The artists work with installation, photography, sound and projection. The exhibition is made up predominantly of multi- sensorial installations that, via smell, sound, vision and physical interaction, give gallery visitors a heightened experience of the natural world.
