Flower of Destiny, Sir Hermann Black Gallery, Sydney University, NSW, 1996 The images in 'Flower of Destiny' incorporate a visual language of symbolic references which relate to the notion of a journey and at times they explore the sense of dislocation that accompanies the traveler. Other works address fundamental issues of the human condition that transcend the personal. Artists through history have used those technologies available to them. The exhibition, 'Flower of Destiny', incorporates electronic media techniques combined with traditional symbolic references. Longley examines the current shift in book format from codex to electronic. The origins of the three books in the exhibition is digital; drawings were scanned and manipulated using Adobe Photoshop. Other works critique the place of new technologies in art and life. |

Armorial, Adelaide Central Gallery, Adelaide, , 1995 'The
works in the exhibition represent a fusion of the artist's practice.
Longley has a national and international profile as a printmaker/book
artist. While she originally worked primarily in the etching medium,
she has more recently embraced computer technology in her work, not
replacing the old technology with the new, but rather moving back
and forth between the two. Much of her recent work involves a discussion
of this relationship: one between the physicality of traditional techniques
- the creation of the etched plate through the corrosive action of
acid on metal and the physical process of printing images on a press
for example - and the less physical process of creating artworks on
the screen.' From the catalogue essay. |
