Since starting the collaborative project Sojourn in White, the artists have been working hard and produced some very exciting and interesting new collaborative work.
The project's progress shows both artist's willingness to push their practice beyond their usual framework. New work is being developed each week, so the final selection of works will be drawn from a wide range.
The Iranian artist Behrouz Rae, has been exploring Indian ink as a medium which he has never done before. He has also introduced colour into these works where normally he uses shades of black only.
Ilse van den Berk from the Netherlands, has been responding to Rae's drawings with more freedom than
usually characterizes her mark making. She has also for the first time been producing installation in response to Rae's practice.
All the images reveal, the artists have found a visual synergy that is remarkable given their disparate practices.
Curator: Claire Watson (Australia)
