Transmogrification

Overview
You'll become the artist in this interactive exhibition in the Playspace Gallery.
Be inspired by a collection of 500 of Gav Barbey's Iceworks on paper and choose your own coloured "ice melt" to add to a series of collaborative paintings.
Let gravity and time change the picture as you watch the painting take shape. Observe how the art works grow and change as more people add their colourful ice melts.
Barbey is a Victorian-based internationally recognised multidisciplinary artist who examines the flow of movement and change through interactive artworks. His work challenges us to think about how, like the blocks of colour, you are all different, always changing, and how, by looking closely, you can explore the diverse complexities that make you unique.
Andrew Howie is a visual artist who has been working and playing with sound and light for more than 40 years. Andrew refers to his approach to the creative as “synAesthetic” – hearing the rhythms, melody and noise of light and motion.
