About the Artwork

Wall Whispers is a series of black and white photographs taken of Meagan’s recent installation, Sky Whispers, exhibited in the Melbourne Now exhibition at the Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia, in 2023.

These abstracted, blurred images reveal fragments of the original immersive light installation which explored the dynamic interplay of light entering and refracting throughout the building’s architecture. In this context, the work transcends its initial presentation illuminated by light tape, now shimmering with iridescence. Reflecting the sunlight and surrounding city lights, Wall Whispers evokes the radiance and movement felt in the original installation

About the Artist

Meagan Streader works with the realm of light and space, predominantly in sculpture and installation.

In her art practice she manipulates, reinterprets and extends upon the existing boundaries of constructed spaces, with her site-specific interventions changing the viewer’s relationship with the surrounding architecture and sense of scale. It’s in this way that her work reveals and interrogates the pervasive role of light in the way we experience fabricated spaces.

Meagan is represented by MARS Gallery.
