Tonight...
This evening we have the private view of Lauren Halford’s The Middle Place.
“I work with long, destructive processes; extensively sanding, dishevelling or hammering materials until their identity is removed and they resemble something else. I’m interested in how I can explore methods of production – is an object the sum total of it’s parts? In this sense I work retrospectively, exploiting...

Tonico Lemos Auad
Chatting with friends last night for some reason brought to mind an artist who I remember vaguely researching whilst at uni…Tonico Lemos Auad aka carpet fluff sculptor. His works do of course extend beyond these delicate almost temporal pieces, that appear to have an air of the whimsical and a disregard for material value. However humorous they are, Auad seems acutely aware of the darker...
IN AND OUT OF PLACE
Make sure you come down and visit the gallery this week. We have a great exhibition on from Max Limbu and other artists from Nottigham Trent University.
These students pay homage to Language and Art - a pairing which has often been overlooked and under appreciated within the art world.
Gallery opening hours - 11am - 6pm daily.
