David Haines & Joyce Hinterding

Two works for Wilhelm Riech

Haines & Hinterding, Two works for Wilhelm Riech, 2006 Sydney-based artists, David Haines & Joyce Hinterding, are widely known for their dramatic audiovisual installations. Working independently, but often in collaboration, Haines & Hinterding bring sound and video together to explore the natural world and its seemingly invisible energies. Hinterding creates recordings of magnetic fields and other natural phenomena that combine with Haines' video installations to create a complex universe of moving landscapes, mysterious interfaces and ghostly transmissions.

'Imagine a multi screen projection - you are inside a pine forest - you are able to watch the forest under siege from itself. Its like you are being attacked by the trees. A strange electromagnetic dust of sound and electricity fills the space.'

Opening: Wednesday 8 February, 6pm

Free artist floortalks Thursday 9 February, 1pm

Sub-terrain

Group exhibition

Sub-terrain, a group exhibition curated by Hannah Mathews Sub-terrain brings together a selection of Western Australia's leading contemporary artists under the 2006 Perth International Arts Festival thematic of 'earthly delights'. These artists, whose work draws on a diverse range of media, are linked by their interpretation of the urban and rural landscapes of our vast state. From the spinifex of Kununura and the colour fields of suburban Perth's backyards to the use of organic materials, the work of these artists reflects the often subconscious yet significant relationship the distinctly West Australian terrain demands of us all.

Artists include Paddy Bedford, Julie Dowling, Derek Kreckler, Matthew Ngui, Alwin Reamillo, Juha Tolonen and others.

Opening Wednesday 8 February, 6pm
