Monday 6 February, 10-11AM
Join us on the first Monday in February for an artist talk by Deborah Kelly, the first of the year in our First Monday series.
Kelly is well-known for her collages and her work, The Gods of Tiny Things, is currently on display in Between the Details: Video Art from the ACMI Collection at Benalla Art Gallery. This kaleidoscopic video unleashes a vivid collage of animated figures and landscapes cut free from the pages of old magazines and encyclopaedias. It explores the threats of extinction and the climate crisis, the tolls of colonialism, and the global political shift to the right, while conversely revelling in the hectic pleasures and desires of life itself.
Following Monday’s talk, Kelly will be hosting a Masterclass on Tuesday 7 February.
Registration essential: T 03 5760 2619 or gallery@benalla.vic.gov.au
Cost: $2
This workshop is presented to coincide with the Gallery’s current exhibition Between the Details: Video Art from the ACMI Collection
