Excerpt
For a project premised on ‘less is more’, there is a surprising richness to [Rachel] Kent’s choices. In the top space, [Susan] Norrie’s array of monochrome objects, in Inquisition and Shudder VI, establishes a sense of inquiry into the nature of art. Her search for technical meaning is continued in [Rosslynd] Piggott’s delicate Collection of Air and also reverberates in Hastings’ somewhat Dada-derived To Make a Work of Spontaneous Art.
