Visual Textures – Wishwrack
Oct 6 — 24, 1987
Description:
Integrating language and visual art, Joan Wilkinson’s solo exhibition Visual Textures – Wishwrack explored the theme of functional adoration. An ambiguous domestic scene suggested both contained contentment and frustration. Five poems behind a ceramic plate in a dish rack were placed to signify the ordinary and practical use of text.
