Exhibition didactic
This installation by Jacky Cheng with local collaborators responds to their business and significant historical building.
The Witch and Windmill in Witchcliffe, refurbished using salvaged and heritage materials. Building on a shared fascination with architecture and the relationship between materials and memories, each artist's contribution captures their unique approach to making. Cheng's work was made by casting traces of architectural elements from the building's interior, impressions of nails, joints, and crevices that mark the changing space over time.
Caruso and Smith's works respond to one another, using the found materials that they accumulate through their lives to celebrate the value of historical materials and their built and natural environment.
