Kamberri/Canberra-based artist Nicci Haynes engages in a multifaceted, process-driven experimental practice that spans drawing, performance, print, film, and installation. Her work explores themes of language and communication, examining how these elements intersect and interact across various analogue and digital media. Haynes is improvisational in her approach, and inventive in her use of diverse materials, often repurposing found objects and technology. In her new solo exhibition, titled RGB, Haynes deepens her exploration into these themes through the use of the RGB colour model, essential to both screen technology and the mechanics of human vision. This model serves as both a technical and conceptual framework, allowing Haynes to explore nuances of perception, signal transmission, and visual information processing, offering a study of how contemporary visual communication is shaped by technology and human biology.
