waters ways
Judith Klavins

22 November 2024
Emerging artists Judith Klavins and Amanda Seacombe contemplate ‘waters ways’ and explore the intrinsic connections they have to water, from distant ends of the ‘time’ continuum. Through installation, process based-sculptures, alternative photographies and moving image, they present new experimental, and performative works, and immerse the viewer in the ways waters move and transform across time.
Klavins’ invites the viewer to reflect upon human impacts on our local coastal ecosystems, to pay attention to water and the changes occurring in and around it, and the fragility of all life, regardless of its scale.
In contrast, Seacombe’s performative and material outcomes reveal how a shallow salty lake, formed over deep time beneath the Adelaide Plains, connects to the present through the phenomenon of salt damp, where geological and urban architectural time intersect.
