The artists in Never-Never Land take pre-existing cultural, commodity, musical and art-historical forms – such as maps, instruments, and icons from the modernist art canon – and repurpose them in their work. Engaging alternately in modes of critique, historicism and adaptation, some of these appropriations are literal, others are formal, whilst some are speculative and fantastical.
Exhibition Dates: 29 May – 21 June 2014
