Michael Cusack :: Steel Frames and Figureheads
9 Oct - 28 Nov 21
Gallery 2
This exhibition by Michael Cusack explores an expanded definition of painting.‘Developments in my practice have seen a shift in focus from shape making to the corruptions and complications of the painted surface and the idea of painting. This development is part of my interest in painting as both image and object.
The hybrid nature of painting and its ability to cut through an idea has seen me investigate more vigorously the relationship between the image and the object.
This concern for painting has led to an investigation into the relationship between painting and the readymade or found object. The aim is to trigger some kind of opening or ensure a dialogue with the work, embracing other materials and objects.’
