Passages
Simon L Wong and Josie Connor
22 December – 3 January
Twentysix, Newtown
The meaning of passage is a way of exit or entrance, a road, path, channel or course by which something passes. A journey, especially over the sea, the motion of one thing relating to another and the act of passing from one state to another.
Passages is a collaborative window installation between Josie Connor’s painting practice and Simon L Wong’s medium format film photography. Both artists undertake a months-long kōrero/conversational journey to explore, respond and create connections between two entirely different art practices, and uncover what drives them in their chosen vehicles, painting and photography.
Both artists have built this project together through intentional, synergistic and sustainable art practice, inevitably finding new direction and reverence for the creative process amidst personal and universal passages.
