Erika Scott
10 March 2022–02 April 2022

The Numb Scrapbook consists of a life-sized makeshift hourglass (Ambidextrous Time Piece) and a series of modified plastic plants (horror-romance). Erika Scott (b 1987, Biloela) is an artist based on Ngudooroo (Lamb Island, QLD). Scott works in sculpture and installation and her visual language unfolds through a variety of media, reassembling and modifying discarded household objects, furniture and popular culture debris – to develop elaborate surfaces and forms that teeter between ‘image and object, the organic and artificial, form and anti-form’. Erika Scott was a co-founder and director of the Artist Run Initiative Accidentally Annie St Space in Brisbane (2008-2015) and Scott also founded the ARI The Soylent Spot that directed projects on an apartment block rooftop in Brisbane between 2015-2020.
