Preview, CLASSifications

You are warmly invited to join us for a special preview of our new exhibition, CLASSifications, where you will have the opportunity to meet the exhibiting arts and enjoy a first look of the exhibition ahead of it’s public opening.

Artist Networking

From 5.30pm, we are inviting artists, art workers and creatives to join us ahead of the preview for an extra half an hour of informal networking.

About the exhibition

CLASSifications delves into the complex and transversal realm of class and identity, through the works of four contemporary artists: Jasleen Kaur, Dinu Li, Jamila Prowse and Joshua Raffell.

This expansive exhibition brings together artists who work with objects to explore how we impart them with meaning and classify them, and in doing so, become a metaphor for how class functions in our society. The works encompass a rich tapestry of often celebratory, explorative and surprising methods to reveal new perspectives on disability rights, the diaspora, craftivism, play, queerness and the family archive.

CLASSifications and its public programme offers a starting point to discuss ‘class’ and invites visitors to engage with an often unspoken, misjudged and neglected issue, to better understand how we can come together in building a fairer and more equitable world.
