Deborah van der Beek: Out of old
Mythologies
26 June – 5 September
2010
Most of van der Beek’s sculptures of humans and animals have
animated, rugged surfaces. They vividly bring to life myths and
legends, from Amazon warrior women to the outlaw Ned Kelly.
Some newer works also mix up legends, old and new, their surfaces
embedded with castaway objects that allude to ecological
concerns.
