Frankenstein’s monster – or ‘creature’ as ‘he’ is referred to throughout Shelley’s novel – is the oxymoron that fuels this exhibition. A life stitched together from death that serves to illuminate the many binaries or contradistinctions that pollute our current landscape of understanding, be that rooted in the otherness of self; the corruption of meaning; the mendacity of a new, substitute mythology; the shape of chaos. In this Scene, seven artists map out a journey that begins with a creature, plagued by hybridity, terrorised by its own monstrosity, and ends with a miasma of fire and brimstone where inchoate form, space and acceptation melt into crepuscular illusion.
