Surface Tension
Wednesday, November 11, 2020, 11:30am – 5:30pm Surface Tension encourages dialogue around significant mental health and relationship challenges due to COVID-19 lockdowns.Through Surface Tension, Rick Hayward distils research by the Australian National University showing that “[T]here is a particularly strong relationship between changes in stress, loneliness and relationships and mental health outcomes […]” due to the economic impact and social isolation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.The exhibition utilises traditional signwriting materials and techniques to create a series of mirrors, which become tools for the viewer to assume an anthropological perspective.Encountering distorted images of themselves and their companions, the artworks operate as windows into an alternate reality where presence can be shared, but physicality is disrupted.A metaphor for the psychological impacts of COVID-19, the artworks and an onsite large-scale mural highlights the importance of connection, community, and established support networks for positive mental health.Location: Exhibition Spaces Venue: Brisbane Powerhouse, New Farm Venue address: Brisbane Powerhouse, 119 Lamington Street, New Farm Event type: Art, Free Cost: Free Age: Suitable for all ages.
