Ann Debono has curated the exhibition Gardener’s Ellipse at CAVES in Naarm/Melbourne, featuring new paintings by Debono, Annika Koops and Daichi Tagaki. The exhibition employs the gardener’s method of tracing an ellipse in the soil to demarcate and plot unformed earth as a conceptual point of departure that elucidates and characterises three painter’s practices, as that which oscillates between poles of reality and idealism, figuration and abstraction.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a zine and essay by Debono which touches on gardens, geometry, movies and painting.
