Cuttings

Cuttings is an exhibition of work by Elizabeth Gower at the Geelong Art Gallery until later this month.

Prismatics is a trip around the colour wheel:

Each square panel has a different geometric design:

The works are composed of pieces cut from printed paper such as magazines and packaging, but can't you see them as quilt designs?

Delineations are strips of paper arranged on drafting film, to form beautiful, complex patterns:

Savings is a collection of works assembled from packaging and advertising materials:

The most recent work is Monochrome Compilation, which is 21 metres long, so can't possibly be included in one small photo. As you walk along it, the pattern gradually changes. It is a challenge to see what has actually changed from one section to the next,

but the changes build up so that the patterns at either end are nothing like each other.

I found it quite intriguing.

The whole exhibition was fantastic. Worth a look if you will be in Geelong in the next couple of weeks.
