Free Admission
For this exhibition, visitors were invited to wonder at giant sculptures inspired by far away galaxies that spiralled from the wall, explore a walk-through forest of paper trees and marvel at miniature worlds that exploded from vintage staple boxes or emerged from the page of a book.
Flocks of birds and butterflies cut from maps appeared alongside artworks that featured dark fairytale imagery. Guns and grenades fashioned from paper currency and sinister silhouettes commented on social, political and economic issues.
At the Gallery of Costume fragile paper dresses and shoes – as well as sculptural dresses fashioned out of maps and money – were on display, responding to the historical costume displays and grandeur of the Georgian setting.
