Carly Bainbridge
Statement:
Emphasising the value of ideas over materiality, my practice deconstructs conventions of the gallery exhibition. Appropriating existing 'Art' objects, I aim to challenge the ownership of materials in transition
Degree Show:
Acquiring a series of discarded frames from Whitworth Art Gallery, I entered a dialogue with the unseen contents.
Having never witnessed the original artwork, I have experimented with an interpreted aesthetic of 'William Morris - Triple Net' via consumable, buyable, Internet appropriations.
De-coding the back of the frame to engage with the traditional hand block print wallpaper, I present a series of research based 'new' outputs, questioning the value and ownership of mass modern consumption.
