Quality presents Lemon Scented by artist Xavier Wear Gardener.
Lemon Scented, more often than not I find myself counting the steps from one slab of concrete to the other . Searching for the finite details between the cracks. Looking up when prompted, a smell, a scent, whatever grabs. But no more than a glance. This exhibition attempts to capture that feeling
Returning for his second solo show at Quality, Xavier Wear Gardener strengthens his ties to the space through a series of paintings using the same material of the Quality projection surface. The works blend seamlessly with the space and create an exhibition that is intrinsically of ‘Quality’.
Xavier Wear Gardener is a self taught artist practicing in Melbourne. Working with paint but experienced with sculpture, video art and sound. Learning art through fields of work. Metal, wood, wax etc.This influence is clearly seen through the aesthetic components of their various projects. All of the aforementioned materials (wood, metal and wax) appear repeatedly in all exhibited works. (Bricks also).
