2025 SPRING SEASON at Coreset
Back to Earth, Coreset’s Spring 2025 programme, is filled with exhibitions and events that bring together creative responses and research from artists offering their insights into concerns, ideas and hopes for the future. The exhibitions and events will engage our senses, reminding us that human behaviour is the impetus for and the major contributor to climate change.
The season opens with the presentation of Aproximity, an exhibition recently shown in London, highlighting the inextricable links that bind the human and non-human to the land they live on. Annie Morrad offers moving sonic and image collaborations with non-human species, Fiona Carruthers explores sustainability and survival through intricate sculptural forms and abstract images, and David Carruthers draws our attention to the fragility of the human condition by marking the passage of time.
From 28 April, we present a photographic exhibition, Forming Threads, supported by The British Council revealing the skills and creativity of makers in Xuzhou & Guizhou China. Rooted in the lives of artisans the exhibition reveals the skills and traditional practices of the rural Miao communities. Through this exhibition and cross-cultural collaboration, we begin to consider different ways to minimise the environmental footprint of production and consumption.
The season concludes with Drift, an exhibition of works from fine artist Daniel Rapley, which takes viewers on a journey to otherworldly destinations realised from the fusion of found 35 mm slides. Rapley places one found 35 mm slide on top of another, creating a compound image. The results are vibrant, recognisable but strangely distant images that defy gravity and disrupt how we see the world through photography.
During these exhibitions, Coreset will host gatherings, conversations and readings to seek new ways of thinking and acting to enable emotional and sympathetic responses to our constantly evolving environment.
