Referencing the history of landscape photography and painting, Ingamells disrupts the framework by interjecting with absurd or unexpected happenings. Amidst these physical interventions, questions of control, movement and perception are explored through obscurity. Alison Ingamells is an emerging artist currently undertaking a Bachelor of Fine Art at VCA in Melbourne. <img src="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/alisoninvite_600.jpg" width="600" height="604" width_o="1068" height_o="1076" src_o="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/alisoninvite_o.jpg" data-mid="29805547" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/A.IngamellsDUD1_600.jpg" width="600" height="901" width_o="2048" height_o="3077" src_o="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/A.IngamellsDUD1_o.jpg" data-mid="29805609" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/A.IngamellsDUD3_600.jpg" width="600" height="868" width_o="2048" height_o="2965" src_o="http://payload160.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5512674/A.IngamellsDUD3_o.jpg" data-mid="29805616" border="0" align="left"/> DRAFT Alison Ingamells 5th April – 27th April 2013 DRAFT presents a new video installation by Alison Ingamells, using play and chance to activate potential... http://dudspace.com/Catherine-Connoly-1 http://dudspace.com/following/dudspace.com/Catherine-Connoly-1 Thu, 11 Apr 2013 00:31:57 +0000 DUDSPACE 5383716 Catherine Connoly 8th March - 30th March <img src="http://payload154.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5383716/CConnolly Dspace 1.jpg" width="670" height="936" width_o="670" height_o="936" src_o="http://payload154.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/5383716/CConnolly Dspace 1_o.jpg" data-mid="28975418" border="0" align="left"/> Catherine Connolly's practice is involved in examinations and reinterpretations of a range of cultural forms from cinema to Minimalism.

Fontana Acqua channels deeper feelings of gender disparity and alienation that influence this state of unease. The public shower is like no other. It sanctions itself off as a place in society where one is left feeling overly exposed and where masculinity is called into question. With the relocation of this intimate space in to the public domain of DUDSPACE, Jimmy Nuttall is juxtaposing his own self-conscious feelings of male identity and masculinity with notions of the idealized Australian male. Nuttall is playing with the sense of disparity within his own maleness while challenging his sense of alienation and vulnerability. Jimmy Nuttall is an emerging artist form Melbourne currently undertaking his Honours degree in Painting at MADA, Monash University. His work is preoccupied with a discomfort around cultural and nationalist ideals found in sport, art and mass media. Using mimicry and reenactment as a methodology, his work frequently discusses gendered states of being that are perpetuated by these outlets. <img src="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_4.jpg" width="670" height="961" width_o="1481" height_o="2126" src_o="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_4_o.jpg" data-mid="28975306" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_10.jpg" width="670" height="968" width_o="1470" height_o="2126" src_o="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_10_o.jpg" data-mid="28975312" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_15.jpg" width="670" height="1005" width_o="1417" height_o="2126" src_o="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_15_o.jpg" data-mid="28975315" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_17.jpg" width="670" height="1116" width_o="1417" height_o="2361" src_o="http://payload126.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4834304/FONTANA ACQUA_17_o.jpg" data-mid="28975320" border="0" align="left"/> Images by Christo Crocker FONTANA ACQUA Jimmy Nuttall 8th February - 2nd March 2013 Fontana Acqua responds to the discomfort and self-consciousness experienced in public spaces, by... http://dudspace.com/Forced-Collaboration-Cheralyn-Lim-Max-Lawrence-White http://dudspace.com/following/dudspace.com/Forced-Collaboration-Cheralyn-Lim-Max-Lawrence-White Mon, 04 Feb 2013 22:21:44 +0000 DUDSPACE 4917149 FORCED COLLABORATION Max Lawrence White & Cheralyn Lim 11th Jan - 2nd Feb <img src="http://payload130.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4917149/promoforcedcollab.jpg" width="670" height="460" width_o="992" height_o="682" src_o="http://payload130.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4917149/promoforcedcollab_o.jpg" data-mid="26302950" border="0" align="left"/> Forced Collaboration is a project run by DUDSPACE where two emerging artists are forced to collaborate.

This large neon work offers a complex inversion between states of affirmation/concession and defiance/redefinition. YES can be encountered as pure affirmation or a state of contrition. Conversely, BUT is an act of defiance, redefinition or positive assertion. There is a conversational play between the text. Seligman is currently completing her PhD at the Victorian College of the Arts. She has previously exhibited at the Monash Gallery of Art, Gertrude Contemporary, Conical, Bus Projects and internationally.

Nina is making this piece in return, to not only highlight her mothers attributes, but her quirks and defects, because she finds these things the most humorous. You Came Out of Me is a phrase one of the subjects repeats over and over in her attempts to enact her mother; to capture, as per the artist’s instructions, her mother’s mannerisms, attributes, quirks, expressions, her habits. Separate to the artist’s explicit instructions were her sneaky, secret expectations, hidden from the subject’s understanding but actually forming the work’s basis: to capture the ultimately complex nature of our relationships with our mothers, and our limitations in understanding and representing them. In transition from self into mother and back again, a portrait of their mother, their relationship with their mother, and an unwitting self-portrait is revealed. Nina Mulhall is a Melbourne based artist who predominantly works with video. Women are an integral part of Nina’s practice; wives, mothers and the female face - looking at the gaze and the portrait of ‘the other’ or ‘the unseen’ are dominating aspects of her work. <img src="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina2_o.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1600" height_o="1200" src_o="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina2_o_o.jpg" data-mid="21465907" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina3_o.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1600" height_o="1200" src_o="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina3_o_o.jpg" data-mid="21465915" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina4_o.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1600" height_o="1200" src_o="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina4_o_o.jpg" data-mid="21465921" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina1_o.jpg" width="670" height="502" width_o="1600" height_o="1200" src_o="http://payload89.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/4092661/nina1_o_o.jpg" data-mid="21465900" border="0" align="left"/> You Came Out of Me Nina Mulhall 24th August - 15th September 2012 Nina’s mother has a shortcut on her phone when she types in ‘Th.’ ‘Thinking of you hope... http://dudspace.com/Not-In-Kansas-Anymore-Minna-Gilligan http://dudspace.com/following/dudspace.com/Not-In-Kansas-Anymore-Minna-Gilligan Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:49:02 +0000 DUDSPACE 3940034 Not In Kansas Anymore Minna Gilligan 27th JULY – 18th AUGUST 2012 <img src="http://payload82.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/3940034/MinnaNIKA.jpg" width="670" height="446" width_o="670" height_o="446" src_o="http://payload82.cargocollective.com/1/6/202295/3940034/MinnaNIKA_o.jpg" data-mid="20585343" border="0" align="left"/> With Minna Gilligan's exhibition Not In Kansas Anymore, DUDSPACE becomes a psychedelic sanctum. Here, Minna is spun again into her ridiculous, out-of-proportion romanticizing of romance. Minna's favourite sentiments appear to be sun drenched, of the 60s and 70s, fanciful, idealistic, writhing with potency and Bob Dylan rhymes. Her works or 'tributes' are made on whims, conglomerations of daydreams and reincarnated rememberings. Stuttering on old 70s bedspreads are awkward paint marks born from a contorted, unthinking flick of a wrist. Muddy patches of fabric dye and bleach are landscapes for picture protagonists, hurriedly cut out from old books. Fragmentary allusions to personal exhalations and traumas are in every subtlety, unable to fully be articulated. Everything appears on the horizon and to exist in that nebulous space next to the pot of gold, at the end of the rainbow.
