Extract from the exhibition text:
This exhibition brings together the works of three artists who share an interest in the repurposing of found imagery, texts and objects as tactical interventions into visual, cultural and physical space. As much of their work uses pre-existing material from books, journals and magazines, their practices revolve around an exploration of image culture and in particular the abstract power structures underlying the photograph and its use in printed media. Arriving, as it were, from different locations and backgrounds these artists and their works approach the material and content of communication from convergent points.
Gunnhild Torgersen mainly works with sculpture and photography, in a practice focused on functions in communication. Her works examine language as construction and material, reworking information in text and images through processes of physical interaction.
