Exhibition | An Iconography of Doubt, Esther Deans

About the event

Esther Deans’ thesis exhibition is an accumulation of ideas and imagery from four years of study towards her PhD through the Auckland University of Technology. This research was a personal investigation into her experiences and preoccupations, including ideas about eschatology, time, literature, art history, memory, and nature. In these works she draws on novels, films, and everyday structures to create an iconography that responds to personal and collective disaster.

Join us for the opening of An Iconography of Doubt: Paintings of Collective and Private Disaster on Saturday 26 October at 6pm. This event will coincide with the openings of exhibitions by Jane Venis and Jenna Packer.
