About

Two Queens presents James Parkinson’s show ‘Ablat’.

Parkinson’s practice uses processes of material translation to re-code and re-contextualise notions of space, object, and body. Pliant surfaces once used to cover, to dress, and to enclose, create an elastic volume highly responsive to the impact of the occupant. The abundance of mass accepts a range of contours inscribed through movement and positioning. Determined by this behaviour, a range of tangible artefacts are produced, in the same way a glove takes on the character of the hand that wears it.

Kindly supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, Leicester City Council and De Montfort University.

This exhibition takes place as part of Leicester Art Week, a programme of exhibitions and events happening across Leicester from the 4th – 13th of November

Two Queens project space is currently accessible via a short flight of steps and therefore not wheelchair accessible. If you have any special access requirements please contact us at info@2queens.com and we will do our best to accommodate you.
