Opening night: 24th September 2020 | 4-9pm Exhibition runs: 25th September - 4th October | 12-8pm Curated by Cole Projects Please join us at the exceptionally current and thought-provoking exhibition EARTH EATERS created in partnership with Cole Projects. Featuring: Sol Bailey-Barker, Natasha Bird, Charly Blackburn, Ebinum Brothers, William Cobbing, Kathryn Graham, Byzantia Harlow, Gregory Herbert, Timo Kube, Jane Lawson, Dunstan Low, Tasha Marks | AVM Curiosities, The Institute of Queer Ecology, Hannah Walton, Charlie Warde, Russell Webb, Trystan Williams, William York EARTH EATERS is an alternative name for the condition Geophagia - the practice in humans and animals of eating earth or more specifically the clay and mineral content within it. This exhibition will explore soil’s potential role in prevention of climate change, the artistic use of soil/earth as medium, and calls on us to readdress and promote the health of the vital substance that we take for granted. The works in EARTH EATERS will question what is at stake in the ecological crises of the 21st century and will challenge the conventional systems of classification, suggesting a worldview that strives to dislocate humans from their assumed position of centrality and superiority as knowers and actors in the world.

Co-curated by Linda Rocco Opening night: Tuesday 27th October | 5-9pm Exhibition: 28th October - 8th November 2020 Full programme TBA Witches, Scamps and Things is an invitation to an undisclosed domain, temporarily inhabited by the artist’s increasingly personal pantheon of beings. An archetypal ecosystem is evolving; what once hummed with florescence is now dirtied and soiled. And they revel in it. The exhibition and associated programme is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. Read more >>> |
