MYTHO-POETIC: Print and Assemblage Works by Glen Skien
MYTHO-POETIC: Print and Assemblage Works by Glen Skien is a touring exhibition that interrogates the human condition.
About the exhibition
With 35 artist books, assemblages, collages and installations, the exhibition brings to life social histories and vexing questions of Australian identity, place and myth. Glen Skien’s etching practice is the platform for his work in other media, while underlying narratives are presented through the use of symbolic imagery such as maps, letters, books and ephemera. The exhibition offers viewers an immersive experience rich in imagery that navigates residues of the past and creates new propositions for identity and historical awareness.
