Oceans

Kovats, T (2014) Oceans. The Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, UK, 15 March – 25 May 2014.

Item Type: Exhibition
Creators: Kovats, T
Abstract: A highlight of the exhibition is All the Sea, an ambitious new work which presents water from all the world’s seas, collected with the help of a global network of people drawn in by the idea of bringing all the waters of the world to one place. It is joined by new and existing work all of which has to do in some way with the sea. Sculptures referencing cliff formations; a machine that mimics the formation of mountains; a sculpture in the form of a reef of proliferating barnacles; a re-orientation of the world in favour of the ocean drawn on a collection of obsolete atlases; a work exploring what happens when two or more seas meet and a selection of drawings made of and with seawater combine in an evocative presentation of the impact of the sea.
