Welcome to Rapture

Rapture curates nomadic exhibitions that are mindful of audience experience, inviting genuine engagement and mutual generosity.

Rapture begins from the reciprocal relationship between artist and audience, because we believe that this positive context cultivates artistic brilliance that demands to be shared.

Circle


Rapture is a collaborative circle of artists and curators with a legacy of initiatives that reimagine the gallery experience to determine a more vital ecosystem for contemporary art.

FLECKNER
Working Class Her0 - 2023

Paper and varnish on aluminium mounted canvas.
150cm x 100cm.

Hovering on the axis of construction and destruction, Fleckner employs industrial processes to produce artworks that carry a powerful, confronting narrative.
His multi-layered work speaks of the membrane that separates domination from vulnerability, and the cultural forces that determine scripts, both personal and social. Each of these strands of artistic enquiry are embedded in the process of creation, where thousands of wafer-thin layers of printed paper are collaged together to form the image.

Listen up.

There is always something to listen to at our installations and showcases.
We build bespoke soundscapes, read poems, have talks and seminars, speeches and live bands, if it suits the presentation.
