Strategies to Slowing a Fall

Andrew Tetzlaff

Opening: Friday, 7 June, 6pm–8pm
Exhibition dates: Tuesday, 4 June – Sunday, 28 July
Artist talks: Saturday 27 July, 2pm

Andrew Tetzlaff’s practice looks at ways in which barely visible or the intangible energies—things such as the weight of air, the force of gravity or the warmth of light—mark and are revealed through material. 

By juxtaposing photomedia with simple objects or processes his work is an effort to poetically draw out and manifest the small complexities of the world around us. 'Strategies to Slowing a Fall' is a playful consideration of solidity and weight against the passage of deep time.
