“No-one (Freud announced) lives in the real world. We occupy a space of our own creation – a collage compounded of bits and pieces of actuality arranged into a design determined by our internal perceptions, our hopes, our fears, our anticipations.” – W. Galin
Taking this quote as a starting point, No-One Lives in the Real World brings eight artists together in an exhibition about incongruous spaces, absurd structures and fragile worlds. What these artists share is an affinity for the use of collage in their work – both the literal cutting out and sticking down and/or the re-assembling of elements from different times and contexts including art history, architecture, literature, nature and technology. Through the mediums of sculpture, drawing, painting, print, photography, video and installation we encounter conversations about imperfection, fragility and otherness.
Private View: 19th February
Curated by Annabel Tilley and Rosalind Davis, Zeitgeist Arts Projects.
