S.A. Adair

28 aug. — 11 oct. 2014

Canberra based artist S.A. Adair's work reflects an internal landscape – a psychological space. Vestiges of thoughts, experience, reflections of the human condition and future concerns are recurring themes in my practice. Through methods of deconstruction, elimination and reconstruction of material and form, Adair draws on processes of abstraction to create organic forms and notations as a way of opening space for interpretation and exploration. Adair works within both a two and three dimensional construct, blurring the boundary between the two as a means of integrating both my drawing and sculptural interests.

 Utilizing slate, pigment and felt, this is as much about the space created by the process of abstraction as it is about the form that remains. Adair likes to think that my work functions as an undercurrent, a murmuring - whispering to the viewer and encouraging subtle reflections of self, space and environment.
