LUCAS DAVIDSON solo show at The Lock-Up

February 7, 2020

Lucas Davidson’s solo show ‘LIVING WITH UNCERTAINTY’ opens at The Lock-Up in Newcastle on Saturday 8 February at 5:30PM. For this exhibition, Davidson draws upon his formative experiences of Newcastle, condensing his knowledge of the area to a single colour, translucent blue #300. By displaying this colour across multiple Lock-Up galleries Davidson presents an array of fluctuating blues that capture the light and space that permeates the surrounding environment.

Engaging with optical, sensorial and experiential aspects of perceiving, Davidson places emphasis on viewer attention and the present moment. LIVING WITH UNCERTAINTY is an exhibition that causes viewers to question what they are actually seeing. The temporal shifting qualities of the work offer a way to engage with prolonged attention and contemplation, skills that have been diminished in today’s accelerated hyper-connected world. The exhibition continues from 9 FEBRUARY – 29 MARCH 2020.
