Artist Talk with exhibiting artist Maxxi Minaxi May
Saturday 6 November, 1-2pm
Maxxi Minaxi May is a multidisciplinary artist who primarily works with sculpture, mixed-media, printmaking and installation.
She considers the Anthropocene/Symbiocene, remixing interrelationships between the industrial and the everyday, the environment, representation, consumerism and popular culture. Colour, play, humour, repetition, collected objects, craft, design and juxtaposition are often seen in her works.
May’s artwork Deconstructing Beauty (2003) is exhibited within Matter: Works from the Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art.
Join her to hear of its production and context, whilst learning more about her diverse associated practice.
Please note: in keeping with the University's guidelines, space is limited for this event and registration is required.
