• GRAHAM FAGEN: FROM ME TO YOU

    April 19 - May 25, 2019

From me to you?

What shapes and forms us and how do we share our thoughts on what we think should shape and form us?

How do we know what is right and wrong?

All my art work is, to a greater or lesser degree, about such questions.

How an object, such as a cross, can suggest meaning. How the colour, shape and form can give a different meaning to different people.

How toys we used as children are understood as weapons when we are older.

The things we do, the things we believe.

From me to you!
