A Physical Reader | CAVES Gallery | 22 July - 13 August 2022
Nathan Beard, Devi Seetharam and Sophie G. Nixon, curated by Jeremy Eaton
A Physical Reader draws together Nathan Beard, Sophie G. Nixon and Devi Seetharam, artists who look to gestures and adornment to manifest the sustained, yet often overlooked, cultural idioms that shape gender and sexuality. The artists pull on the threaded lineages and hierarchies that find form in the seemingly innocuous details of cultural vernaculars. Their painterly, image-based and material inquiries create aesthetic frameworks that re-read the inferences embedded in dress, the motion of a hand and textiles.
