Centrala Art Gallery, 2-10 June 2017
FLUX explored the connections between the coming together of different multidisciplinary artworks and the visitor’s cohabitation of the gallery space. It invited the viewer to question the norms and perceptions of different artistic disciplines by inviting them to move amongst artworks that challenge those boundaries, and encouraged them to reflect upon how the artwork either challenges or adapts to its surroundings.
FLUX featured work by established and emerging artists from across the Midlands region: Mark Houghton, James Lomax, Anna Parker and Zoe Robertson. The artists made new artwork for the show, responding to the gallery space.
The students also established themselves as a new curatorial collective, Room7. They hosted a symposium, and successfully crowd funded to publish a reflective publication on the exhibition.
This exhibition was curated by: Laura Bishop, Aelita Galevska, Stephen Kirk, Katrine Mortensen, Olivia Myatt, Jessica Pollington, and Bethany Williams.
