Kate Palmer and David MacDiarmid explore the void - the gap between marks or forms, fractures and collapse.

The search for resolution is not key, rather a semi or partial state of existence, a content state of flux. By delving into formlessness or loss of material integrity of line and fabric, they have an identifiable purpose; to view the broken as a whole and to understand disconnection as part of a wider aim. Allowing cross-overs to establish relationships, and provide moments for sites of dialogue. They both convey marks and surfaces that explore relational and resonating elemental forms. They create work where a collapse opens up the potential for impermanence. They use material processes to form temporary images, structures, or objects. What once existed has collapsed, and what has taken its place is also potentially impermanent. It has been or could still be covered; slashed; bent; cracked or broken. This is Palmer and MacDiarmid’s art of collapse. Read on....
