Peter Eramian
Play Me
13th March – 18th April 2019
Peter Eramian’s solo exhibition Play Me, inspired by the discography, lyrics and persona of singer-songwriter Neil Diamond. Peter Eramian presents a series of sculptures and a commissioned short story by Oswaldo Hadjilyra. The works continue Peter’s fascination with the compacting, condensing and compounding properties of concrete, the second most consumed material in the world after water. Via play, Peter opens up a discourse that compacts, condenses and compounds notions and representations of nature and human activity, materiality and spirituality, immanence and transcendence, the everyday and the universal, agency and grace. The exhibition is informed by Peter’s research and practice during the 10 month Home Workspace Program at Ashkal Alwan, which he completed in 2018.
