Kudos acknowledges and pays respect to the Gadigal and Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. They are the traditional custodians of the land Kudos operates on. We create, design, share, and exchange our work and knowledge on this important meeting place. We pay our respects to elders past and present and extend that respect to any First Nations people who engage with Kudos. This is and always will be Aboriginal land.

Kudos presents Mote. As the poet and essayist, Aldo Pellegrini believes, destruction is essential for the synthesis of new matter. In ‘mote’, the artists have de/re-constructed the mundane with time and care. This exhibition challenges preconceived notions of valuing, remembering, and understanding the mundane, through each artist’s commitment to the slow art of noticing. Fragmentation enables new ideas, ways of thinking and seeing the familiar and the everyday.

Sirinya Stuebe’s sculpture challenges the identity and ‘usefulness’ of a chair once it has been deconstructed. Deanna Hegner’s bleached and fragmented photographs challenge how memories are formed and understood in a hyper-stimulating and image-saturated world. Jade Gillis makes permanent the fleeting interplay of light and shadow through her laborious stippling drawings, inviting viewers to take pause. Ilana Lapid brings value to the dismissed junk of our hyper-consuming world through her slow and time consuming mosaics.
