Un:sighted, a group show featuring works by six Melbourne artists, engages audiences with an understandable explanation of abstraction and the forces that drive artists to produce abstract art in a society preoccupied with literal explanation.

Louise Blyton, Tim Gresham, Emma Langridge, Troy Mendham, Lynette Smith and Peter Summers utilise a range of techniques and media including painting, tapestry, illustration, photography and installation to address what they see as a blind spot in Australian art criticism concerned with abstract works.

Un:sighted encourages us to shake off the burden of memory, avoid the anxiety associated with future uncertainty, and become totally immersed in the present moment.
