In Another Life! - Exhibition Opening

In Another Life! reimagines the apocalypse and queer utopias through an ecological lens. An antidote to Valentine’s day the day before, if you will.

This exhibition takes place in the surviving industrial Barrowland weaving factory, now Strange Field. Drawing on ideas surrounding crip time, the sculptures emerge as a reimagined and altered post-apocalyptic landscape of regrowth and hope. These forms of futuristic world-building are contextualised within the capacity to imagine otherwise, using natural and artificial elements to build on disabled, queer, and feminist understandings of time and space as ‘other’.

Molly Wickett's first solo exhibition is supported by Creative Scotland.

Drinks provided, all welcome.
