Christina Mitrentse's work


I am delighted to be showing alongside the work of established artist and curator, Christina Mitrentse, who has lent the name of her large scale installation, Emblem - Deconstructed and Destroyed: A Homage to John Latham (pictured right), to the exhibition.  The billboard, on the exterior of Trinity space, created from a beautiful tessellating geometric prints and can be viewed 24 hours a day, on Bardsley Lane off Creek Rd. The pattern is constructed of books, standing on their end and photographed from above, giving the idea that they could be protruding from the building itself, thus referencing the large blue and yellow book sculpture that penetrates the window of the late John Latham's home & studio, Flat Time House.

Inside her installation Meta-Library sits on the floor of the atrium, Trinity's main exhibition space. The audience is welcome to reconstruct
and purchase a variety of books and rare art publications that compose the work and continual ‘Bibliographic Data Flow’.

Please visit  Christina Mitrentse's website to find out more about her work.
