The exhibition will explore the relationship between mapping a place at a moment in time and the unseen network of systems operating just beyond our perception in the same setting. An ongoing drawing installation in the gallery space will will seek connections between systemic movement, endurance hallucinations, natural patterning, and synthetic grids as a way of understanding our natural environment.
