Additional Info
"Intermission" is an exhibition of drawings, sound and sculpture. This intermission occurs within a liminal space, situated on the sensory threshold. It embraces the dichotomic experience of living within a transitional state - a pause of unknown duration. It leans into the heaviness of stuckness, forced submission, perpetual waiting, letting you surrender and drift away. While simultaneously offering you the drug of hope, to take pause, get lost in reflection, seek nourishment and create your own sanctuary. "Intermission" is a bridge between realities.
Becc Ország is a Melbourne-based artist working predominantly within the medium of drawing. Ország’s practice is primarily an investigation into sacred space and religious experience, in which she explores the practice of idolatry, the relationships between the man-made monument and concepts of the holy, sacred and divine. Her work addresses the fine line between Utopic and Dystopic ideals by critiquing widely accepted political, religious and social belief systems.
