Granville Street Gallery: Look Both Ways
The exhibition LBW is a conceptual and physical exercise in reframing perspective. In practice, this has manifested as a set of palindromic sentences that the viewer, quite literally walks through, and engages with differently depending on the direction they’re walking in.
I have no interest in converting people from ideology to another, but if I can get people to stop for a moment and ask “how did I form my ideas of the world” and think about how they came to their assumptions about the world then maybe there won’t be as much polarisation.
