  • The Village Idiom brings together new works by Claire Healy & Sean Cordeiro that emerge from everyday life and their encounters with the landscape surrounding their Blackheath studio.

    Moving between the natural and the manmade, the exhibition considers how objects, pathways, and language shape the ways we observe and inhabit the world.

    Across the exhibition, discarded metallic forms are overlaid with motifs drawn from flora and ornament, where traces of human presence and the cycles of growth and decay intersect. What emerges is a meditation on perception and rediscovery, where objects become vessels for reflection and the boundaries between observer and environment remain in constant flux.

     

    Join us for the opening celebration. Thursday, 2 July, 5-7pm. All welcome, no RSVP required.

    'Working as a collaborative duo since 2001, Claire Healy & Sean Cordeiro’s practice reflects a preoccupation with the dynamics of global mobility, fallout of consumer society, and contemporary notion of home.'

     

    Combining playful humour with art historical references, the duo transform prefabricated structures and readymade materials, from Lego and IKEA furniture to car parts and architectural fragments, into ambitious sculptures and installations defined by deconstruction and reinvention.

     

    Winners of the Sulman Prize in 2022, Claire & Sean have exhibited widely in Australia and internationally. Their installation Life Span featured in Australia’s presentation at the 53rd Venice Biennale, and they have participated in major exhibitions including the Auckland Triennial, the Australian Biennial of Art, and the Oku-Noto Triennale, Japan. Their work has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions across leading institutions in Australia, Europe, and the United States.
