Eleven multidisciplinary artists invite you to encounter their creative responses to a month-long winter residency in a remote part of northern Canada.
Through coastal hikes, the artists immersed themselves in the dramatic wilderness, weather, culture, and complex history of the province of Newfoundland. Braving constant sub-zero temperatures, the group incorporated hiking, ocean swimming, photography, filming and research. The resulting art works are raw, beautiful, and contemplative; EXPOSURE is a singular exhibition that reveals the abiding connections between the UK and Canada, and our inner and outer worlds.
Installed in historic industrial spaces in west London, the exhibition includes painting, photography, sound, mixed media, installation and NFT. Evocative and unique, this show invites viewers to experience the extreme conditions and states of mind the artists experienced during an extended stay in a wild and remote environment.
Each artist has explored individual psychological, social, and physical reactions to being away and, in diverse ways, exposed.
