8th – 23rd July
Opening 6-9pm, 7th July 2016
Gallery 2

Rise and Fall looks at extractionism, the process by which value is taken without being replaced.
This exhibition of painting and sculpture explores the idea of people-as-resource and the exploitation of our collective
energy in processes that in turn plunder the earth-as-resource.
The artist’s tenderly constructed images of workers present us with a disjointed timeline of human endeavour; encouraging us to view ourselves through a macro lens that pits civilisation against time and history.
