Sandy Brown, England
This exhibition is an installation and in two parts. The
first is Sandy Browns interpretation of the ritual of the
Japanese tea ceremony, whose central idea is ritualised quiet,
meditation: The Still Point. All objects connected with the
tea ceremony shown in this exhibtion: bowls, jugs, plates,
cups, boxes are accessories of civilised hospitality and available
for one’s own use.
From the calm of The Still Point comes energy, which will
be expressed in the second part of the installation: The Dance.
Tall, abstract, exuberantly colourful forms symbolise the
female and the male, fertility and joy of life as the essence
of The Dance. Beside their special function within the installation,
all these objects offer themselves as adornments for private
as well as public spaces.
