Join new artists to The Central Art Gallery, Jordan Barnes and Kara Burrowes, as they discuss their art practices and the themes behind their new works exhibited in Barnes & Burrowes.
11.00am, Saturday 18th January, 2025.
Free to attend, all welcome.
Jordan Barnes’ new body of work explores the notion of solitude and isolation as a physical state and an emotional and psychological experience. Through the lens of the human figure viewed in various situations, Jordan investigates the psychological impact of solitude; the tension created between the self and immediate surroundings; and the quiet dialogue that emerges from isolation.
Kara Burrowes creates intuitively. Her work is guided by emotion, sensation, and a tactile engagement with her chosen materials. She draws on memory and vision but is mostly guided by feeling and acknowledges ‘a desire to create the spaces in my heart.’ Kara feels a strong bodily connection to these works; a sense of being enveloped, immersed, or shrouded within the work.
