Malta Exhibition Postponed until 2021

Variable depth, shallow water installation detail/production still

VARIABLE DEPTH, SHALLOW WATER has been in development for almost a year. Given these unprecedented times and all the uncertainty around us in a collective effort to contain COVID-19, the exhibition has been postponed until 2021.

ABOUT: Visiting the recently fallen sea stack Dwerja, also known as The Azure Window, on the island of Gozo, Pluta was captivated by what was one of the world’s most spectacular expressions of geological time. Drawing on the reflexivity of the photographic medium, Pluta uses images, video, objects and sound as the foundation for this new exhibition. Variable depth, shallow water brings together disparate elements comprising handmade contact negatives of unhinged atlases, faux-artefacts cast in bronze from the depths of where the Pacific Ocean and East China Sea meet, footage from the vast Australian landscape, and neon components that implode in on themselves.
