Transition 2017

Transition is an opportunity for artists, or artist groups, to use the gallery space to consider how a series of works is developing or to try out ideas for an installation or interactive project. Transition gives artists the time and space to take ideas forward in a public environment, aiming to explore conceptual and practical issues, without the constraints of presenting a finalised exhibition. Artists can challenge their practice and take risks concerning their usual working techniques. It offers visitors the chance to see work in a state of flux, meet the artists and discuss the work

WEEK ONE 14-18 Feb

Lower Gallery Steve Tanner: Who Are We?

With photography and dressing up, we are invited to explore our relationship with clothes, from the conformity of the uniform to expressions of individual identity, and how clothes shape us.

Upper Gallery Graham Guy-Robinson: Forms of Behaviour

Forms of Behaviour will use damage, repair, simulation, interruption and meditation as processes of participation and production. Expect temporary fences, body-filler, denim, shell suits and car paint.
