Tracey Moffat: Fourth

Moffatt: Fourth, Composed, Humble

Tracey Moffats artwork is part of a series of 26 other images in which the artist has used colour print on canvas. In this series, Moffat focuses on those athletes who came fourth at the 2000 Olympic games in an attempt to highlight the perverted glamor of 'almost being a star'; through photography. Moffat has also used research, to capture the acute moment when the athlete finishes the races and looks to see their final result. In doing so, Moffat depicts the expressions of athletes (a set look - which is an awful, beautiful, knowing mask) to suggest that its simply beautiful to try and not necessarily win.

Fiona Hall: Cell Culture

Hall: Cell Culture, Linger, Relentless

This artwork is a member to a collection of 30 other objects in which artist Fiona Hall has used glass, metal, pvc and beads in vitrine. Working with a range of medias, Hall has used a composition of production methods. In Cell Culture Hall has used a white plastic container and beaded components that have been sewed together and shaped to a particular form. She has also worked with glass to explore and express her ideas. Other methods adopted by Hall in this collection include woven videotape, carving plastic from plumbing pipes, shredded coca cola cans and creating shapes out of sheets of aluminium and sardine cans.
