Opens 6pm Wednesday 22 March - Sunday 9 April 2017
  ELAPSE at ANCA Gallery in March will feature Ruby Aitchison, Thomas O’Hara and Cara Johnson. Three artists who connect art with their environment by utilising unique processes of dehydration, erosion and degradation to offer an exhibition of sculptures that explore the changing characteristics of materials over time. Each artist has developed individual techniques that essentially speed up the effect of time to balance control and chance in material explorations of form. The result is an exhibition of small sculptures by each artist that are commanding, intriguing, and as complex and intricate as nature itself.
