About

A new exhibition of work gestated by three artists in the watery depths of the Lincolnshire marshes. The work considers the links between the supernatural, folklore, creed and Queer identity; exploring land, class, politics and memoir. The transdisciplinary work employs channeling, mediumship, magic birth as art making and examines human/object relationships. The work consists of: drawing, sculpture, performance, text and video. James Chantry, James Milner and Grime made work independently and through collaboration as a supportive exchange. A charged and spectral exhibition exploring otherness and time travelling art making in liminal margins.

Co-curated with Freya Wright.
