Presented by: Tauranga Art Gallery
Andrew Beck: Soft Filter is a brand new commission created especially for the gallery’s atrium space by the Tauranga Moana-born, Te Whanganui-a-Tara-based artist. Blending photography, painting, sculpture and installation, Soft Filter is inspired by influences as diverse as sci-fi movie The Matrix, the work of Surrealist artist Jean Cocteau and the musical genre Vaporwave. Visitors are presented with a large scale, immersive experience in which these formal and thematic elements are merged, encouraging slippage from one form to the next.
