Exhibition
30th October - 7th November
Along the way culture, particularly visual culture, drifted and became content which challenged old structures and allowed for new emerging opportunities.
This exhibition pitches ceramic objects made by and for May Darbyshire's Kingdom of Imagined Animals. These set before Mark Darbyshire's collection of found images, also of animals.
Our purpose: acknowledging we are content whilst detaching ourselves from the poverty of image streaming. All in the hope content will find at least a modicum of contentment.
