Gloam is indeed a feast for the eyes and the stomach. An exhibition that explores the subtle tenets of lighting, displaying artefacts that work as vessels to hold a candle's flame, accompanied by fine wine and rich delicacies.
The exhibition includes a range of multidisciplinary designers with skills in glass blowing, silversmithing, metal working, woodworking, and ceramic practices. Gloam denotes twilight and all of its transitory and transformative qualities, thematically exploring the importance between lighting and object while welcoming the baroque machismo that comes with an open flame.
The event will open to the public with a ticketed candle lit opening night, highlighting not only the work but also the mystical qualities associated with dusk, nightfall and the interplay of light within the show. The opening is a catered event where guests will indulge in food and live cello performance.
The show will be held at Oigall Projects (122 Gertrude Street Fitzroy) and will be open to the public from Thursday 27 - Sunday 30 October
