Further Reading

 

Mary MacDougall is interested in the physicality of paint, subjects in transition and questions of perspective. She works with glass, ceramics and image archives. Forms in her work sometimes appear ancient and quiet, while at other times like super-heated rock, flowing and coagulating.
 
 
Mary MacDougall (b. 1983, Australia) lives and works in Naarm. Her practice spans painting, drawing, photography, writing, music and archival research. She has presented two solo exhibitions previously at ReadingRoom, and a two-person show with Joan Jonas. Mary has also exhibited widely in artist-run-spaces, and produced a number of artist books in collaboration with designer Nicholas Weltyk. Warm Currency, her music project with artist MP Hopkins, has performed locally and internationally, and will soon release a new LP on Horn of Plenty records. Mary is represented by ReadingRoom.
