Description
Excerpt from Artist Statement:
‘The Gift That Keeps on Giving’ is a multi-compoment installation for Sundry Bar. Reflecting on the season cues of the holiday season, the work is informed by the cultural phenomena of “cuffing season”, whereby partnership is actively sought out as a remedy for loneliness and the need to “stay warm”. Reimagining the Sundry building as a love letter to the artist himself, a momumental bouquet of florals drape on the its facade. Tapping into the artist’s continued interest in aesthetic interventions that unpack cultural miliues, the proposed set of new works references the artist’s signature floral motif throughout separate floors, with the intention of creating a visual narrative that seeks to be a catalyst for introspection and engagement.
Offering a unique perspective on this intersection between art and hospitality, the environment is envisioned as a glittering monument, layered to address the intricacies and complexities of personal relationships. The artworks shown explore themes of identity-building and kinship, furthering the artist’s ongoing interest in the embodied practice of self-therapy and mental mitigation. Paying homage to the house colours, the works, both inside and outside, take on a mishmash of autumn palettes and bright campy accents. The featured type of works intended for the space will be in an even spread of mediums synonymous with Xun’s practice–a mix of inflatables, textile & text based works, and mixed medium fibre-glass foam sculptures.
