Me, We is a mixed media exhibition that uses roadwork and construction aesthetics to analyse the concept of romantic love. A mix of photo, text, ceramic and everyday objects are deployed resulting in a tongue-in-cheek expression of contemporary and historic ideas and ideals around romantic love. For some, the quality of our romantic relationships underpin the qualities of our overall lives, making the weight of finding romantic love one of the most important things in an individual’s life. Yet, unlike roadwork navigations, we are left in relative isolation, traversing this arena with few tools and an out-of-date road map.
Liz McCrystal is an artist based on the NSW South Coast, Australia whose practice explores themes of identity, isolation, intimacy and anxiety through the theoretical framework of the human condition. Experimental in approach, Elizabeth uses photography and installation to deconstruct auto-biographical, topical and philosophical topics.
