Hevea, 2021
Catalogue published as part of Goldrausch 2021. Design by Alina Schmuch. Essay by Kassandra Nakas:
“Hevea ist spekulativ, weil Bethan Hughes neben den Objekten auch die Bilder unserer Gegenwart in den Blick nimmt: computergenerierte Bildwelten, die in ihrer permanenren Verformbarkeit ein unerwartetes visuelles Echo der geschmeidigen Plastizität des allgegenärtigen Gummis sind.”
/
"Hevea is speculative because Bethan Hughes focuses not only on objects but also on the images of our present: computer-generated visual worlds whose permanent malleability is an unexpected visual echo of the supple plasticity of the ubiquitous material rubber."
