PASSAGES: BRIAN CASTRO, KHAI LIEW, JOHN YOUNG
TarraWarra Museum of Art Victoria, 25 February - 27 May 2012


"Passages is a collaborative project which presents an enticing combination of thought-provoking literature, elegant design and fine art, bringing together the writings of Brian Castro, furniture of Khai Liew, and paintings of John Young. The three artists in Passages inhabit a similar cultural space shaped by the Asian Diaspora, which emerges in varying degrees through their individual disciplines of literature, design and visual art. Their common Asian reference informs each artist’s engagement with modernism to develop an aesthetic particular to Australia. This wonderful confluence of ideas and experiences enables fresh dialogues and dynamic correspondences to emerge and be exchanged between their different art forms."
