Bridging the space and time between the script of ancient Phoenicia and contemporary living, Carterton-based artist Rhondda Greig explores the notion of home through painted letters and words.
Recalling the Phoenician origins of script, the exhibition expresses the ongoing human attempt throughout history to transmit ideas through the word – its meaning, shape, and visual sound.
