Last few days to view Ellie Kayu Ng’s ‘Catching the Big Fish.’ Last day 30 May.
The act of ‘Catching the Big Fish’ implies there is a period of waiting for the big moment or ‘big fish’ to come along. This, intertwined within the context of domestic, household chores, suggests that it is in itself an act of labour to wait for a dream to come true. It is the wandering thoughts, or even the nightmares that are worth waiting for.
Ultimately, ‘Catching the Big Fish’ is an exhibition that reflects on the role of imagination as a survival mechanism. As a tool of exploring the self, but also as a mode to help meander through the tasks of the day. These vivid, energetic works bring joy and humour to the everyday.
Reverie: A state of being pleasantly lost in one’s thoughts; a daydream.
