Homage

Constructions by Mark Dutney 

13 July - 17 August 2008 
Redland Art Gallery, Cleveland, Gallery 1 

Homage features works by Mark Dutney that are a direct response to the art created by the original Mornington Island Arts and Craft Centre artists. Mark’s three dimensional reactions have been constructed from hundreds of parts that are individually painted, glued and screwed together. Mark has created these works as homage to the Mornington Island artists’ work and intends to demonstrate a transformation rather than a plagiaristic reproduction of the work. A selection of the Mornington Island artists’ artworks, which Mark responded to will also feature in the exhibition.
