‘Hoist Lift Spring’ debut solo with @1301sw_au opens today in Naarm/Melbourne 4-6pm all welcome
Taking the exhibition title, these are words of ascension and in-betweenness (“to hoist, to lift, to spring”) pointing to the action of rising, but yet to reach, a form of progress and equilibrium — forcing focus on the moment of connection. A horizon line, where sky (ascended) and earth (descended) meet. For Griffin, this conjunction offers a meeting place of collectivity, curiosity, and conceptual richness, here ladders and the strata of the earth serve as a conduit between land and sky.
