Bobby Corica: 'Orders'
Thursdays to Saturdays, 11am to 5pm Thursday 21 November to Saturday 14 December
Stanley Street Gallery is thrilled to announce the solo presentation ‘Orders’ by Naarm based artist Bobby Corica in our tank space. ‘Orders’ explores the meeting place of chaos and repetitive gesture in gold and silversmithing techniques.
Bobby Corica works from his Brunswick studio in Naarm. Drawing from his Italo-Australian heritage and a background in biochemistry and molecular biology, Bobby embarked on his silversmithing journey in 2019, honing his craft in the art of chain making. Guided by his interest in “chaos”, Bobby’s process is best described as “intuitive,” as he delicately responds to the qualities and limitations of materials such as silver, gold and glass. The culmination of Bobby’s intuitive practice manifests in highly textured and truly one-of-a-kind pieces that carry a distinctive allure.
In 2022, The National Gallery of Victoria commissioned Bobby for the 2022/2023 Alexander McQueen: Mind, Mythos, Muse summer show. His work has been exhibited as part of NGV Design Week, Oigall Projects, Jam Factory and Craft Victoria. We are thrilled to be presenting Corica in Eora for the first time.
Please join us for the opening celebration of ‘Orders’ on Saturday November 23rd from 3 - 5 PM in Darlinghurst, Eora.
