Patrick Hall - Artist Interview - Made Of Broken Pieces



Published
22 September - 16 October

Despard Gallery is pleased to present the latest video in our Artist Interview Series featuring contemporary Tasmanian sculptor, Patrick Hall. Listen to Patrick discuss the concepts that underpin his practice and how drawing from personal narratives has helped his work tackle significant and universal topics.  Patrick also reflects on how a craft based approach, by working slowly and methodically with materials, can unlock their stories and inherent characteristics.

‘Such complexity, theatricality and craftsmanship are characteristic of Hall’s work. He is a skilled carpenter who thinks in broadly poetic terms. In his hands a cabinet or a chest of drawers becomes a metaphor for the mind, each compartment a receptacle of memories and secrets.’ - John McDonald
