"Figuring a Scene" traces the process of form-making within particular contexts, such as history, society, faith and identity. In doing so, it raises questions around making and making sense, and how emotions, imagination and sensory experiences take centre stage in our understanding of art, redefining how we make sense of the world around us.
Join this tour led by exhibition curator Patrick Flores as he elaborates on the curatorial approach that strays from conventional art historical narrative. Instead, it presents episodes featuring natural elements or substances such as shadow, fruit, fire, air, wax and city, focusing on instances where these elements morph into social forms that can be intuited and grasped.
