30 artists have taken over an empty shop in North East London February 4th to April 28th 2012 to put on 11 exhibitions in 12 weeks. The project is called Turnaround – referencing the hoped-for regeneration of the Wood Street Indoor Market in Walthamstow and also the idea of saying “come over here and take a look”. Because the space is completely made up of windows and the first show is hung facing outwards the title also alludes to seeing both the front and back of the hanging works. The artwork for the exhibition series includes painting, printmaking, drawing, sculpture, photography, performance, video & sound works, installation, textiles, mixed media & crafts, bookarts, music and poetry.The artists are all members of Waltham Forest Arts Club, a group of over 300 amateur & professional artists, writers, creatives and musicians based in Waltham Forest that meets monthly to organise exhibitions and community projects. Turnaround is a curation project by Julie Caves, Julian Beere and Helen Porter.
