An exhibition curated by three of our students showcasing work by themselves and fellow students, please come along to the private view or any day that you can and show your support.
“This exhibition investigates the role of artisanal sensibilities within contemporary art practice. The artists involved in the exhibition have a tactile relationship with the materials that they use and this can be seen in the autographic nature of the artworks on display. Each of the outcomes featured in the exhibition are born out of the interdependency of material and process. The artists’ mediation of this dichotomy roots their practice in processes of a truly physical nature. Here, artisanal traditions are re-imagined in a contemporary art context; the artworks that are exhibited all exist as the (occasionally momentary) termination of an action in which something physical is manipulated by the artist.”
