pubs.rights-statement	Commissioned by the curator Carrie Kibbler at Hazlehurst Regional Gallery, the installation Panic Room was made for the exhibition Patternation whose premise was the reconsideration of pattern in contemporary art. The installation brought together photography, painting, sculpture and custom designed furnishings in a densely patterned interior space. Like other recent projects, the work sought to combine formalism and ornamentation with concepts conventionally thought to be incongruent with these traditions: the body, femininity, and anxiety. The work was based loosely on a corporate or medical waiting room. Unlike conventional waiting rooms, subject to bland décor and emptied of excitation, however, Panic Room engaged and over stimulated, with paintings and distorted photographs displayed alongside hyper-detailed ‘décor’. Rather than distance viewers from the anxiety of waiting spaces through placating aesthetics, the project attended to these feelings directly. Panic Room’s inclusion in this survey exhibition alongside the work of other established Australian artists such as Heath Franco, Gary Carsley and Rochelle Haley was significant. The exhibition was accompanied by an electronic catalogue, public programs and a series of video interviews with the artists and curator.	en_US
