Thanks to Georgia for news of this great new exhibition at Quay Arts and free event on Saturday for families. Ed
25 artists responding to the theme ‘Standpoint’. Standpoint (definition: a physical or mental position from which things are viewed, considered or judged; a point of view).
This year, we invited artists, designers and makers from the Island and beyond to exhibit in our biennial Open exhibition responding to the theme, ‘Standpoint’, where we aim to reflect on and interpret the world around us, from our own unique standpoint.
Expect fresh, dynamic, innovative pieces; from painting, textiles and sculpture, to photography, film and installation, many responding to the theme through everyday observations, but often focusing on place, identity and memory, making a statement from their standpoint.
