Luxelles
Amarie Bergman
12 - 26 March
A formal re-conveyance of light into the Milky Way Galaxy creates the conceptual basis for Luxelles, an exhibition of transparent and white minimalism. The independent yet complementary components by Amarie Bergman are a site-specific combination that re-define light and lightness in the spartan architectural space of PS's Upstairs Gallery.
Bergman formulates and makes reductive art. Combining an economy of means with an extravagance of editing seems to create semblances of unexpected simplicity. Born in Edmonton, northern Canada, she has had exhibitions since 1980. Her artistic evolution was first documented in an interview with Sand T. Kalloch on artSPACE. Thirteen solo shows have taken place in the past 12 years: in Sydney, Melbourne, Launceston, Alice Springs, and Paris. Works are held in corporate, government and private collections. Bergman was a contributing writer for the New York based publication, Whitehot Magazine of Contemporary Art and is the director/ graphic designer of Thin Air. She currently lives/ works in Bunbury, Western Australia.
