Amanda Lono

Amanda Lono’s exhibition I am your doggy dish or champagne out of a lady’s slipper at Hippolyte Studio is a photographic installation that plays with and questions themes of being observed or seen, surveillance and control, as well as the symbols of labour, rest and the everyday.

 Upon entering the space, the viewer encounters a wooden sculpture that suggests a technological apparatus, perhaps one that serves no apparent purpose. Hidden within it, a pair of eyes looks back at the viewer. 

The gaze can become unnerving, creating dissonant associations: Who is inside? Am I performing or being entertained? What does it mean to be observed? To be protected, invaded, controlled? And what does it mean to be seen?
