Jennifer Brady: Space to think, feel, learn, grow
17 Aug – 13 Oct
Space to think, feel, learn, grow is Jennifer Brady’s exploration of shared mental health experience through site-specific installation. Engaging with the English language, the exhibition seeks to provide space for gentle rumination and reflection – on where you have been, where you are now, and where you are going.
Drawing influence from childhood play mats, the exhibition centres around bedding sourced from the artist’s childhood home. Tactile and soft, with ambiguous and speculative sentences embroidered across the surface in light colours, the audience will be invited to remove their shoes, and walk, sit or lay on the work and find connections with the words and materials.
