Gigant
This is an exhibition of gigantic prints taken from a selection of Kara’s recent drawings. Rather than framed objects hung for the purposes of display, the prints are pasted onto the gallery wall rendering them part of the fabric of the room.

The physical presence of the viewer is thrown into play.  The size of the image and the space that the viewer and the artwork inhabit, become integral to the experience of encounter. The fleeting nature of the works provides an essence of temporality. Size space and time become a vital dynamic of parts.

The word Gigant is derived from the Latin noun gigas and its adjective gigantem. Old English took its word for giant from the Latin adjective making gigant. It was used for several centuries.
