Sensory overload: Karen Casey, George Khut, Ross Manning and Kit Webster

Sensory overload features the work of four contemporary new media artists who create immersive spaces using hypnotic soundscapes and pulsing imagery to explore the invisible data that permeate our environment. Offering an alternate perspective of sculptural installations and spatial engagement this exhibition of light and sound works stimulate and mesmerise through an overload of bodily and meditative engagements.

Sensory overload will bring together the work of Karen Casey, George Khut, Ross Manning and Kit Webster. The meditative qualities of Karen Casey’s installation are inspired by the interplay between mind and matter, a theme also explored by George Khut who invites participants to regulate their stress levels by visually displaying their heartbeat in an onscreen display. Ross Manning and Kit Webster explore the dynamic movement of light through suspended sculptures that are charged with projected patterns of colour and form.

This exhibition is curated by McClelland’s former Balnaves Curatorial Intern, Charlotte Carter and has been supported by NETS Victoria’s Exhibition Development Fund.
