Llyf, Group Exhibition - Stiwdio Griffith
Swansea College of Art: 8-22 March 2024
'Ilyf - derived from the term 'iteration’. The exhibition explores experimental approaches to photographic image making - through book production, sculpture, installation, performance and site specific intervention. Artists Tamsin Green, Gareth Phillips and Folium will expand their respective process-led practices out into the gallery environment and explore the potential of Stiwdio Griffiths as a 'site' for the production of new work.
The exhibition will be open from 8th March and culminate in a 'closing event' on Friday 22nd March, where the artists will discuss a range of subjects and processes with Swansea College of Art staff Ryan Moule, Estefani Bouza and Joe Coleman.
I'll be showing the new collection of pieces Becoming Lichenised (2024). The work explores circularity through the use of by-products and left-over prints from the making of the book walking out of sleep: encounters with lichen territory. I’ll be doing a mini residency at the gallery at the end of February to develop the work towards installation.
