A Break in The Clouds
Mathew Borrett

SEPTEMBER 22 TO OCTOBER 16, 2021

Reception: Saturday, September 25, 2 - 5 PM

The Red Head Gallery is pleased to present, A Break in the Clouds, an exhibition by Mathew Borrett.

Borrett builds a playful series of loosely themed worlds. Inspiration for these places range from a summer trip to Nova Scotia, playing Minecraft with his nephew, and ideas from 80's science fiction novels. The work continues Borrett's exploration of vast landscapes crafted with densely intricate detail and sparse fragments of narrative.
