Dancing on Quicksand is Simon Ogden’s latest exhibition in Tamaki Makaurau. His practice encompasses painting, printmaking, assemblage and sculpture and is one of the few artists in the world working with antique and ‘found’ linoleum to produce striking landscapes. The exhibition comprises a new series of linoleum constructions, presented alongside found object assemblages and painting. The intersection at which these approaches meet is at the heart of Simon’s practice which explores the interplay and transformative power between media, object and form.
