From 5 August to 16 September a must-see exhibition of Illuminated Fine Art Photography arrives at Lightworx.
Lightworx Gallery Auckland is delighted to present in collaboration with creative production house and artist agency, Loser Kid, an exhibition titled “a safe place for stupidity”.
The show, which opens on 5 August, features limited-edition illuminated fine art photography by New Zealand artists Amber Jones, Benn Jae, Charles Howell, Clare Pluekhahn, Hamish Melville, Jamie Bowering, and Olivia Kirkpatrick.
“This is a rare opportunity to experience the artists behind the lens and to view works that will never be created beyond this exhibition. Shot on film and presented in striking black and white format, the imagery on show is absolutely breathtaking”, says Director of Lightworx Galleries, Pauline Bianchi.
“The exhibition title, ‘a safe place for stupidity’ takes reference from South African artist William Kentridge, where the studio is an artist’s castle – a place where he/she/they can play king or buffoon,” explains Benn Jae, the Founder and Director of Loser Kid.
Exploring the notion of creative freedom without having to conform to anyone else’s agenda, the work ranges from the carefully constructed to the unharnessed beauty and wildness captured in moments of unrehearsed life.
