Over recent years Tom Dale has produced a body of work for both galleries and public spaces, bringing to both the same dexterity and questioning vision. Terminal Blue will concentrate on the following pieces, two of which are important works in the development of his practice that are for the first time, to be fully realised, as well as one set of works that have been commissioned especially for John Hansard Gallery.
Terminal Blue - the title work of the exhibition - forms the first part of the show, uniting art specifics, as much of Dale’s work does, such as questions of scale and definition, with more phenomenological ones.
Key to the exhibition will be an important new body of work which will occupy the central gallery space. A series of sculptures will take their cue from an earlier series of digital images, and, like the two central commissions, these objects will in their own way seek to make sense of the changing dynamics between interior/exterior space which Dale sees as something born out of the impact of digital and virtual space.
