Christine Myerscough Artist

MADI Univerzum - Poliunivernum

A selection from the Mobile Madi Museum 22.03.2024 to 6/04/2024

Madi is an acronym created from the words Movement, Abstraction, Dimension and Invention, which covers the international Contemporary geometric art movement also established in Hungary. For the exhibition of Deak 17 Gallery, we present domestic and international contemporary works selected from the collection of the Mobile Madi Collection together with the Poly-Universe game and painting modules developed from the principles of Madi Art.

In 2021 Christine was invited to exhibit in the #6 biennale internationale d’art non objectif in de la ville de Pont De Claix, Grenoble France. Eight works of the series un rêve dans un rêve sold, four to a private collector and the remaining four works were purchased by the city of Pont de Claix for their public art collection.

Christine was the only Australian artist exhibiting in the #6 biennale internationale d’art non objectif in Grenoble.

This led to the series un rêve dans un rêve (a dream within a dream) that explores the use of found and manufactured objects and examines the artist’s perceptions of non-objective art, colour and form within the broader realm of her practice.

Parallel Play is a combination of two ongoing series of works, un rêve dans un Rêve

(a dream within a dream) and measure for measure. These assemblage works sit beside or adjacent to one another with or without interacting directly.

The MADI Movement is 77 years old this year.

The Gallery invited artists from all over the world who have unwittingly or consciously created in the spirit of MADI. The exhibition will feature more than 200 works by 125 artists from 25 countries, available for sale to art collectors through an online auction during the exhibition.

Mixed Media Assemblage Paintings

This series of works looks at how certain types of goods generally categorised as household or domestic are juxtaposed with garden tools being defined as more masculine rather than feminine.

By bringing in elements of vintage wallpapers evoking past memories of childhood as well as often being defined as feminine these work aims to look at how the male/female elements are held under tension together.

The violence of a saw blade against floral wall paper and other domestic household and discarded tradespersons objects play with narrow tensions

Parallel Play is a combination of two ongoing series of works, un rêve dans un rêve (a dream within a dream) and measure for measure.

These assemblage works sit beside and adjacent to one another with or without interacting directly.

This is one of a series of works in progress dealing with the Australian Landscape. Moments in time, traces of nature, light and shadows are caught and preserved in photographs. As we tread heavily on the land, plundering its resources, the question of what we most value is becoming crucial.

Found object, paint.

On a dirt road, on the edge of a national park several hours south of Sydney we stumble across the remains of a burnt out car. The scorched earth, singed trees, and solidified puddle of molten metal are all traces of a small act of vandalism, a reflection of wider vandalism on a global scale.

Australian Landscape is criss-crossed with a network of telegraph poles. If you look closely you will find that each one has a number. This series is works in progress exploring the fine detail with a  wider outlook and the intersection of technology and industry with the natural world.
