Me, Myself and I, Exhibition
Curated by Rosalind Davis 28 February - 10 June 2020
‘Me, Myself and I’ is an exhibition investigating artists’ self-enquiry and expressions of the interior self. Works speak to a range of lived experiences recalling personal and political struggles, family relationships and memories of childhood. Across painting, drawing, photography and assemblage the show reflects on themes of freedom and solitude, collectivity and belonging, disenfranchisement and loss. In liminal spaces between fact and fiction, the fantastical and the everyday, twenty artists grapple with - and celebrate - the complexities of identity, selfhood and finding one's place in the world.
