Join us for the Sydney launch of Tight Crop, a recent publication by Artspace studio resident Jack Ball.

Tight Crop is a dynamic assemblage of photographs that operates as both a photobook and poster collection. Through this experimental publication, Ball's work flirts with the boundaries of abstraction and figuration, liquefying the distinction between the inside and outside, while using collage to materially explore forms of queer embodiment and image-making through the lens of a personal archive.

The launch will feature an insightful discussion between Ball and the publication’s editor Rachel Ciesla, Lead Creative for the Simon Lee Foundation Institute of Contemporary Asian Art at The Art Gallery of Western Australia in Boorloo/ Perth.

 Jack Ball: Tight Crop is available for purchase during the book launch or online via Heart of Hearts
