‘Heavy trees, arms and legs’ is a line from Rebecca Tamás’ poem Palermo. The weight of limbs—branches, bones, roots, tendons—anchors this exhibition of new works by Nicola Farquhar and Sorawit Songsataya. Heavy trees, arms and legs recognises gravity as a compositional force that shapes us as living bodies, and connects us with elements in the natural world. The exhibition considers the potential of imagined forms to generate more fluid understandings of the environment we are a part of.
