Writer and Interviewer, Poetics of Obsolescence: Dr Vellodi provided a critical essay for Laurence Noga's solo exhibition, Poetics of Obsolescence. In her text, she analysed Noga's use of found objects as "humble, anachronic portals to other times," exploring the interplay between the symbolic and the formal in his constructed paintings. She further supported the exhibition by conducting an in-depth video interview with Laurence Noga.
