Somewhere in Time presents a group exhibition engaging with the idea of satellite and the broader connotations of the term. Selected artists have been invited from Scotland, The Netherlands, Japan and the United States to create new work in response to this theme.
As well as being exhibited in the Tent Gallery each work will also have a corresponding piece, or satellite work, existing simultaneously in a different geographical location. These respective locations will provide an international context that allows for a periscope viewing of the wider exhibition. Artists’ individual work will span a diverse range of approaches and include a choreography for dust dispersal, a beach laboratory exploring the salt industry and a performative work tracing wind direction.

The theme “ESCAPISM“ refers to a state of mind in which one can temporarily disassociate oneself from daily routine and can experience a sense of release from the pressures of life whether it be work/study commitments or social responsibilities.
Through my work, I want to create a dialogue between myself and my new environment and explore my personal experience of ‘escapism’.
The materials mesh and copper represent the opposing forces of work and play to hopefully bring to fruition a structure, a model, which throws up interesting juxtapositions between the elements of landscape and architecture.

A response to stoic philosophy of the antiquity of Japan. These works, one with gold foil, one with transparent medium, have been digitally analysed and materialised through process (analog), providing bipolar ‘points’ of experience.The work is not excessive. The work exists for a long time in silence.
