Quiet

curated by Sophie McIntyre

22 October 2004 – 05 February 2005

For this exhibition of seven large C-type prints entitled Quiet, Webster focused on the male body as a signifier of identity and as a site of desire. In these works Webster explored issues relating to the construction of gender, and what she described as the ‘cliché of the brute as a fantasy construct’.

This exhibition was staged concurrently with The Expatriates: Frances Hodgkins & Barrie Bates.
