EFFING THE INEFFABLE – Featuring Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro

Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, Beyond the Valley of the Kings Constellation (2016), Assorted black Ikea furnishings 175 x 246 x 5 cm

Effing the Ineffable is a group exhibition featuring Australian artists Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro. In an effort to uncover the enigma of the modern human condition, Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro conflated Egyptian Hieroglyphs and the visual language of IKEA. Effing the Ineffable features Egyptian stone reliefs that have been re-etched onto misconstructed IKEA furniture. This kind of fringe vision is only an extreme manifestation of what we all do daily: our attempts to create order and meaning out of the clues that we find around us.

Exhibition Dates: 21 October – 13 November 2016

Opening Night: Friday, 21 October 2016, 7-9pm

Venue: Chan Hampe Galleries, Raffles Hotel Arcade #01-21, 328 North Bridge Road, Singapore 188719

Hours: Tuesday through Sunday from 11am – 7pm

When: 21 Oct - 13 Nov 2016,

By: Chan + Hori Contemporary
