[in]form - art exhibit by Brett Phillips
Exploring the intersection of image, sign, symbol, and text - driven by questions of identity, belonging, and our place in the structures that surround us.
[in]form is Brett Phillips’ third exhibition, following 'Constructed Realities' and 'Patterns of Diversity', and continues his ongoing investigation into how we make sense of ourselves and the world around us.
A practice shaped by curiosity and tension at the centre of our human experience: the need to make sense of ourselves, the world…. and the uncertainty that comes with trying. Driven by questions of identity, belonging, and our place in the structures that surround us, the work reflects an ongoing observation of the patterns we co-create and inhabit.
With a background in Anthropology and Art History, Brett Phillips approaches making as a form of inquiry. Working at the intersection of image, sign, symbol, and text, his practice explores how meaning is formed, learned, and passed on.
Blending traditional painting techniques with spray paint, stencilling, and stamping, the works draw from both the gallery and the street, inviting slower looking and room for interpretation.
…it begins from the belief that meaning is not fixed, but rather something we [in]form together: through encounter, attention, dialogue and interpretation.
