I'm very chuffed to be part of 𝙒𝙃𝙊 𝙒𝘼𝙉𝙏𝙎 𝙁𝙇𝙊𝙒𝙀𝙍𝙎 𝙒𝙃𝙀𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙔 𝘼𝙍𝙀 𝘿𝙀𝘼𝘿? a group exhibition exploring grief, loss, identity, and community at the Williamson Gallery in Birkenhead - with a beautiful lineup of artists. I will be exhibiting eight existing and new works from my 'they concreted over the garden and the cats ran away' series. This will be the 1st time they have been exhibited together.
The exhibition is curated by Lizz Brady, who runs Broken Grey Wires. The exhibition opens on Thursday, 24th July from 6 - 8 pm and continues until 13th September. You can read Lizz's motivation for the exhibition below.
