Celebrated artist Mariele Neudecker will discuss her practice, career and current exhibition at Hestercombe Gallery, SEDIMENT, with Artistic Director and artist Tim Martin.

In this special event, Mariele will explore her career spanning over three decades and her quest to find a ‘contemporary sublime’ through exploration of subjects such as mapping, perception, the invisible, painting and the history of art.

This event will be followed by the book launch and signing of Mariele Neudecker - SEDIMENT; a collection of essays by experts in various fields, including academics and curators from both art and science backgrounds, who address the diverse areas of Neudecker’s practice.
