"‘Ephemeral Perception’, journey of the senses"
‘Ephemeral Perception’, journey of the senses - art - Southland artist Beverly Claridge, music - Southland composer Juliet Woller.

The brevity of life and the desire for significance is pondered in the latest body of work by Beverly Claridge entitled, Ephemeral Perception. We’re alive for a flash, then off into eternity, represented in this series by her interpretations of Hubble space images. After her 2006 solo show, Noble People Treasured Land, at Anderson Park, Beverly yearned to express her philosophical nature in a more contemporary, surrealistic, and abstract manner. New Zealand elements are integrated from her perspective as a relative newcomer to Aotearoa.

The debut performance of “Deep Field”, inspired by Hubble Deep Field Images that transformed our view of the universe and our place in it, will be presented by Southland composer Juliet Woller. Come experience a visual and aural journey of the senses where live percussionists surround the listeners, calling and responding to each other.

Beverly Claridge will present an artist’s talk on preview night. Transport will be available from Invercargill. More information on http://www.beverlyclaridge.webs.com
