exhibitsADAM LAERKESEN
Animist Exodus
Animist Exodus,
Adam Laerkesen’s inaugural exhibitionwith ATG, showcases an eclectic mix of evocativesculptural works that inspire the imaginative and unfamiliar.Richly flocked branches sway in a non-existent breeze, acheeky crowned monkey proudly sits on a human skull,whilst nothing is expected – equally, nothing comes as asurprise.Poetic and mystical these sculptures embody hauntinglystriking qualities that can steal your breath by the power oftheir presence. Tracey Clement of the age expressed ‘inLaerkesen’s sculptures the eerie theatricality of Americanart-star Matthew Barney meets the understated eloquenceof Australia’s Hossein Valamanesh’Perhaps the power of Laerkesen’s work lies in his ability toextract from his viewers their own poetic capabilities.Laerkesen explains that ‘the work itself has an open endedquality allowing the viewer to imbue their own poetry and imagination into it.’ Indeed poetry and imagination resonates in
Animist Exodus 
an exhibition experience that can only be described as lyrical in mood, sound in method and both charismaticand arresting in its staging.
