Artist Talk: Justin Balmain 

On the final day of Justin Balmain's Gertrude Glasshouse exhibition 31 Days without Light, Gertrude presented a conversation between the artist and Artistic Director Mark Feary, followed by a closing reception. You can now watch the artist talk online. 

31 Days without Light was a sculptural, architectural and artistic intervention within, and outside, of Gertrude Glasshouse. Acting as a precursor to an in-development film, which draws upon ideas of magic, reflection and representation, this exhibition utilises and reimagines the architecture as a means to think through inversion, power, shadows and doubling. Like a mirror, the exhibition seeks suspension, a further image obscured, transient, held together by something outside itself.
