RESIST/ RELIEF opens this evening from 6pm at @novacancygallery at @qvmelbourne. RESIST/ RELIEF takes the technical language of making, conceptualising this process to create a duality between these two forms. The RESIST technique exposes and endures, withstanding corrosive agents to continually occupy space. Acts of resistance, however, require us to practice self-care. RELIEF techniques carve out a space that offers clarity and calm. Artists include Anna Russell, Cat Lawrance, Cecilia Jacobs, Clara Chan, Damon Kowarsky, Eleanor Franks, Elizabeth Banfield, Georgia Steele, Henry Leslie-O'Neill, Hyun Ju Kim, Jack Parnaby, Janet Hughes, Jennifer Lea, Jessie Balletta, Jennifer Tarry-Smith, Joanna Kambourian, Jessica Choi, Juan Rodriguez Sandoval, Kyriaki Teo, Maddie Crockett, Mali Taylor, Mia Sabec, Melanie Cobham, Olympia Sarris, Rubee Hay, Ruth Stanton, Sam Reiher, Zoë Tripovich, and Paul Bishop. RESIST/ RELIEF continues until 18 July. #printmaking #melbourne #novacancy #novacancygallery #qvmelbourne #whatson #thursdaynight #melbournecbd #artinthetimeofcoronavirus (at No Vacancy Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRCq2hrDXIW/?utm_medium=tumblr
