Published to coincide with the most comprehensive exhibition to date by
this British artist. The exhibition will consist of sculptural
mixed-media pieces and video, characteristically subtle, combining a
gentle sense of humour with profound observations drawn from everyday
life.
Through the use of double-take and uncompromising deductive
strategies, Floyer tests the limits of aesthetic experience: recent
examples of her work include a black rubbish bag full of (art gallery)
air, and Monochrome, a supermarket receipt listing only purchases of
white products. The knowingness of Floyer’s work, its references to
artistic precedents, adds to a richness of possible meanings
significantly made possible by minimalism. Included is an interview
with the artist by Jonathan Watkins.
