AFTER HOURS is on now at Window Gallery, running until September 30th!

Our shared urban environments are inhabited by a kind of chaotic and ephemeral harmony. Through our continuous relationships with infrastructure and discarded objects, Elise McDermott and Phoebe Laird re-contextualise objects as carriers of memory, affect and social behaviour, representing moments of surrounding change and the politics of public space and consumption.

AFTER HOURS
Phoebe Laird & Elise McDermott
Window Gallery Onsite
19th August - 30th September
Opening Wednesday 19th August 5:30-7:30pm

Our shared urban environments are inhabited by a kind of chaotic and ephemeral harmony. Through our continuous relationships with infrastructure and discarded objects, Elise McDermott and Phoebe Laird re-contextualise objects/civic materials as carriers of memory, affect and social behaviour, forming a transient theatre of subliminal urban change in the after hours of public space and consumption.

Elise McDermott’s installations investigate the sediment and signage of shared popular environments. Focusing in on convenience, she questions our sentimentality, maintenance and function of consumer objects and spaces.
Phoebe Laird’s Sculpture captures the moment when the streetlights turn on or off. Her objects hinge on disruption and care, the holding of soft and hard, light and dark, homing.

See you when the streetlights turn on,
