Pattern Recognition exhibition

'Pattern Recognition' is a major exhibition at Town Hall Gallery exploring the intentions and motivations of artists who continually engage a theme, subject or visual style throughout their creative process.

The human brain’s ability to identify patterns and repeat symbols allows us to visually match what we see with the information we already know, finding structure, cementing knowledge and gaining further understanding.

The allure of returning to, reconsidering or reframing our understanding speaks to our mind’s ability to interrogate and innovate.

The exhibition features artists who have dedicated their practice to exploring and evolving a particular concept or enduring preoccupation.

Their art is expressed through purposeful and continued use of colour and form, pattern and repetition, motif and subject. Dynamic and hypnotic, this exhibition unpacks the complexities and depths, the symbols and stories and the beauty found in the persistent exploration of artistic expression.

Featuring: Emma Coulter, Casey Jeffery, Chaco Kato, Jenna Lee, Kent Morris, and Esther Stewart.
