This exhibition presents digital print images that incorporate pattern to
suggest or represent natural ecologies of thought, media or irritation*.
Without necessarily defining what patterns subconsciously represent, this
exhibiton acknowledges that patterns encapsulate primal and transcendental
communications, where shapes and colours are ultimate embodiments of
beings or living forms.The exhibition is curated by James K-M.

*In Understanding Media (1964) Marshall McLuhan wrote: "What we are
considering here, however, are the psychic and social consequences of the
designs or patterns as they amplify or accelerate existing processes. For
the "message" of any medium or technology is the change of scale or pace
or pattern that it introduces into human affairs."
