Summary 'The Abyss' exhibition gathers works by twenty-five artists whose distinctive practices destabilise and recombine images, forms and bodies to offer critical perspectives and new ways of being. Their works explore contemporary issues by utilising historical grotesques and various visual strategies--from the horror vacui of elaborate surfaces, through to the abject and informé. Many of these artists approach materiality in enigmatic ways to suggest there is value to be found in not understanding. They invite us to consider our individual perceptions, fears, desires, and potential for metamorphosis. Exhibiting artists: Tony Albert, Hany Armanious, Gordon Bennett, Krista Berga, Anastasia Booth, Juan Davila, Karla Dickens, Chantal Fraser, Karl Fritsch and Francis Upritchard, Ian Haig, Louise Hearman, Gordon Hookey, Natalya Hughes, Emily Hunt, Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran, Robert Pulie, Dieter Roth, Carolee Schneeman, Tim Schultz, Tyza Stewart, Sophie Takách, Wart , Jemima Wyman, Paul Yore.
