Press Release

Starkwhite is pleased to present What’s the Sun by Trenton Garratt from 12 July to 6 August 2011.

Garratt says: “For this exhibition I have selected works from different projects within my practice that address the visual agency with which I produce and consume art. Featured in the exhibition are works that consider pictorial
compositions as constellations of colour and draw on curiosity and desire through conceptual and formal qualities such as signs, values, surface and materiality.”

Recent projects by the artist include: Model Conversations, a performance and design project in the exhibition Knowing You, Knowing Me curated by Emma Bugden for Artspace, Auckland (2010); -.- (dash-dot-dash) commissioned by the Auckland City Council (2010); and Out/In exhibited at Daire Sanat, Instanbul and Grimmuseum, Berlin (2010).
