Bob Levene was the first artist to work at Crate as part of the EXHIBITION AS MEDIUM programme in the inaugural exhibition SOLO SHOW / GROUP SHOW, which is a group exhibition presented as a series of cumulative solo shows.
Arriving in Margate on Monday, she made new work over the week that has kick-started this process.
Following on from Bob, each artist will produce new work in the gallery spaces at different times during the exhibition, choosing to use and/or disregard what has gone before. This will result in a series of layered solo shows within the gallery spaces.
Her work adopts pseudo-scientific strategies and anthropological methods of recording
to analyse 'the nature of things', often using the land to experiment with our perceptions of distance, speed & time and exploring ideas around mapping, human scale and memory. It touches on the relationships between the scientific and artistic approaches to making sense of the world. Questioning ideas around representation and the notion of ‘truth’ it invites us to reflect on our own ability to impact upon the world we inhabit. The work manifests as recorded sound & video, performance, installation, drawing and photography.
