Everyday Every Other Day combines artwork on different trajectories that investigate invasions of the insidious and irrational into the everydayness of being. This group exhibition brings together five artists who employ elements of fixation and repetition in their work when mimicking the familiar, such as depicting figures of authority, whether political or not, or reworking subjective or collective fantasy in associative narratives.
