Art Space Ballarat presents Torn Textures and Hybrid Glyphs: VISPO, Altered Texts and Altered Realities, the first solo exhibition by multidisciplinary artist ReVerse Butcher (rVb).

Drawing on two decades of experimental practice across performance poetry, VISPO, collage, altered books, music, projection art, VR and immersive 3D environments, this exhibition showcases the evolution of rVb's visual-poetic language from the page to the spatial realm.

This exhibition coincides with the release of the companion book of the same name, published by Steel Incisors (UK) and available in both physical and digital editions.

ReVerse Butcher (rVb) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans performance poetry, collage, altered books, VISPO, mixed media, videopoetry, music, and immersive digital art. Her work investigates how language constructs reality—examining the instability of meaning, the materiality of text, and the borderlands between 2D and 3D environments.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
