Come and celebrate the culmination of artist and Senior Lecturer Lana Locke’s summer residency, A Feral Plot (Making Sculpture and Other Strategies for Survival), exploring the conflicted challenges of making sculpture in the climate crisis.
The residency exhibition will be a chance to see the body of work Lana has made during this period, including her evolving film-in-progress Becoming Frogphlegm and new sculptures. Visitors will also be able to see how the collective installation has evolved in the Space, of sculpture with salvaged clay and charcoal drawings on the walls, which visitors to the Space over the summer have participated in creating.
Lana will give an informal walkaround of the exhibition space at 6.30pm.
