HANY ARMANIOUS
"Intelligent Design, 2006"
Exhibition dates: 1 June – 1 July 2006
Gallery hours: Tuesday–Friday 10am–6pm, Saturday 11am–6pm
Hany Armanious guides us through a landscape of process and form, mining its interior. The nature of reality exhumed there does not always reassure the big brain-like organ through which we pick in search of ideas. The inside is a mess of abstraction. Everything, upon close inspection, in that transition between scales, is a scene of menace or tender beauty to digest. We are cast between nourishment and waste. Laptop, bubble jet, electricity etc. (the hard-won trophies of home office design) let us cure the difference between figuration, façade and their others. Calculate and communicate the modular membranes, the material epiphanies that enfold us toward an understanding of the outward principles of good design and the inner workings of nature.
