ARTNOWLA, March 18, 2019. A review of  Tim Hawkinson’s much anticipated exhibition at Denk Gallery.  This exhibition is like an intellectual funhouse for adults who enjoy whacky whimsicality. Hawkinson is a bricoleur who tinkers with everyday materials to make quirky gizmos, quasi-anatomical constructions and ingenuous mechanical contraptions that are so baffling the viewer is left wondering how and why they function and what they mean. But beneath the absurdist humor in Hawkinson’s idiosyncratic multi-media work lurks an underlying philsophical inquiry into our perception of physical processes – something he conveys through an infectious sense of bewilderment.
