Comfort Zones @ Quay

Whilst up at Quay Arts recently, a postcard for the next event in the Micael West Gallery caught my eye.

Comfort Zones @ QuayOn Saturday 19 January a touring exhibition brings together work by twelve artists from the UK and abroad and explores the environment which we might call ‘home’.

It’s called Comfort Zones and will bring be a mashup of video, textile, sculpture, drawing, video and short film.

The blurb says that …

“The works in the show play with humour, encouraging us to look at our own homes, belongings, rituals and comforts with fondness and indulgence. Yet not all the comfort zones explored here are all that they seem. Many of the works are disconcerting, questioning, and often surreal, revealing events, memories and stories far from what we might expect.”

Amongst those exhibiting will be Darren Banks, Paul Bush, Maia Conran, Katie Cuddon, Anka Dabrowska, Caitlin Heffernan, Louise Hopkins, Martin Kersels, Nina Saunders, Jennie Savage, Ola Simonsson & Johannes Stjärne Nilsson.

There will be a drinks reception on Thursday 24 Jan between 6 and 8pm – everyone welcome. See you there!
