Salem

14/06/2008

Castlefield Gallery presents Salem, a group show of four artists, Ruth Barker, Sigga Bjorg Sigurdardottir, Erica Eyres and Niall Macdonald, whose work uses drawing, sculpture, video and installation to invert the truisms of contemporary imagination. The distinct aesthetics underpinning their work in each case draw from the artists’ diverse cultural backgrounds in (respectively) the North of England, Iceland, Canada and the Western Isles of Scotland. Representing the echoes of these disparate locations through a contemporary lens of the critical grotesque, the artists will present new work that explores their varying obsessions.

For ATM08, Castlefield Gallery has invited two artist groups from the islands of Taiwan and Singapore to present new site-specific work in the island of Great Britain. Channel_A (Hongjohn Lin and Ella Raidel) from Taiwan and p-10 (represented by Woon Tien Wei, Jennifer Teo working with collaborators Jeremy Chu and Kai Lam) from Singapore have both developed work which engages with the cultural, political and social climates they operate through different avenues of enquiry.
