James Dodd MOTION - SALA exhibition 2019
August 8 to September 15
Exhibition Opening August 10 6pm-8pm
James Dodd has a practice that meanders across a range of different outcomes. He has a curiosity for machines, tinkering, backyard adaptation and the way in which these things might be incorporated into a visual arts practice. This exhibition includes a selection of recent paintings created as part of Dodd's Painting Mill project alongside a number of contraptions that are part sculpture, part tool and part performance prop.
James Dodd will be offering a workshop during the period of the exhibition.
