QAGOMA | Watch as we install Courtney Mattison’s 'Malum Geminos' for 'Iris van Herpen: Sculpting the Senses' @QAGOMA_Australia | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 33 seconds ago.
Courtney Mattison’s practice involves translating the effects of climate change on the fragile beauty of coral reefs through the creation of sculptural installations of stoneware and porcelain. The ceramic wall relief 'Malum Geminos' 2019 in ‘Iris van Herpen: Sculpting the Senses’ at Brisbane’s Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) until 7 October 2024 depicts bleached coral forms branching horizontally in a reflected pattern across the wall.

Exclusive to Brisbane, ‘Sculpting the Senses’ is an immersive sensory exploration of Iris van Herpen's practice with 130 garments in conversation with contemporary artworks, natural history specimens and cultural artefacts from which the designer draws inspiration.

Created for the likes of Beyonce, Björk, Cate Blanchett, Lady Gaga and Tilda Swinton, Iris van Herpen’s sculptural silhouettes stem from a deep curiosity about the universe and a highly collaborative approach to haute couture. Her unconventional and dynamic approach to fabrics and techniques combines subtle hand-crafting with sophisticated technologies such as 3D printing to evoke the intricacy and diversity of the natural world, from marine biology to quantum physics.
