Ella Barclay’s installation “I Had To Do It” is currently on display at UTS Gallery, Sydney and will continue to run through November 25, 2016.This is the artist’s first solo institutional exhibition, assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body. The installations in “I Had To Do It” serve as technological tableaus; directing us to the physicality of hardware, the ethereal nature of data and the alchemic transformation of ideas. Barclay employs a range of media to explore some of her vital contentions: the power of text as technology, messy network architectures, myth making and the internet – as well as a reflection on 20th century techno-utopianism. Barclay has exhibited extensively in Sydney, as well as project and group exhibitions in Tokyo, Taipei, Edinburgh, Brisbane, Kassel, Bathurst and New York.The exhibition is on view at University of Technology, Sydney, Level 4, 702 Harris St, Ultimo, NSW.
