LONDON.- Seventeen will present Peter J. Evans – Feedbacker, on view September 5 – October 13, 2007. Within Peter Evans practise, drawings and objects formed by diagrammatic processes and artificial systems are used to chart and delineate abstract concepts such as human relationships, memory and beauty. These drawings are often formed by repetition of simple actions that build up over time into complex structures or form ambiguous pseudo-scientific, graphical tables. A series of drawings, constructed over a number of years, forms the back-bone of this show, alongside a new large scale, wall drawing, using a Japanese ink-line process.

Evans is also installing a large floor-based sculptural intervention, which occupies the majority of the gallery space. In its white room, Waveformer, 2007 takes its visual cues from a gallery or museum floor - lightly stained and highly polished parquet. At the viewers feet a series of waves are breaking and sliding to rest at the en! d of the room as the wood rises in folds and shifts. In producing this work Evans has fused a natural, shifting, aural phenomenon with a static and silent, authoritarian material. This relationship between form and material is echoed in Supernova Moment, in which, conversely, a parquet explosion is frozen in angular stasis by the solemnity of its substance. Resting on seemingly impossibly sharp points, the work fills a full cubic meter of gallery, poised within a moment of drama, but unable to continue.

This is Evans first solo exbition for the gallery and having toured from SpaceX, Exeter, it will continue on to Workplace, Gateshead in 2008.
