Fake, artificial vs Pure, precious.
Excess, gluttonous vs Scarce, rare.
Grotesque, gaudy vs Spiritual, divine.
Selling Sunset vs ‘The golden apples of the sun’ - Yeats.
Gold.
Both a symbol of power, divinity and wealth as well as the artificial, excessive opulence and cheap; gold is rare and yet abundant, it is the light above us and the earth below. Gold is gold because humans decided it was.
Photographic, painted, and sculptural works by Hayley Theyers, Rubetta Neal and Lindsey Horne that explore the tensions of gold and all it embodies questioning what are we chasing and what is truly precious?
