“Ghost In The Machine” is a group show by three artists, working in a variety of different mediums with a shared approach to making art that looks familiar, while at the same time demonstrating a sense of the peculiar and unknown. It is an invitation to embrace uncertainty and embark on an introspective journey of discovery.
The term “Ghost In The Machine” was first coined in the middle of last century by British philosopher Gilbert Ryle. He was critiquing the popular misconception that our minds are separate from our bodies. By challenging this theory Ryle, and others like him, hoped we would come to a better understanding of how we create our own reality and help us make sense of our world.
