Staged in four venues across the UK, Variations is a new work by Felicity Hammond to be unveiled this Autumn, in an evolving installation exploring the relationship between geological mining and data mining, and image-making and machine learning.

The work opens at Photoworks Weekender in Brighton on 24th October before further iterations travel to The Photographers Gallery, QUAD in Derby as part of FORMAT International Photography Festival and Stills in Edinburgh across 2025. As part of Photoworks Weekender the first chapter of the exhibition V1: Content Aware will be exhibited as a public realm installation outdoors in Jubilee Square, Brighton from 24th October – 27th October.

 

Variations is commissioned through the Ampersand/Photoworks Fellowship, a unique biennial opportunity that supports a mid-career artist to create and exhibit a new body of work. It aims to enable the artist through a £15,000 award; mentoring and curatorial support; a dedicated public programme and digital content with international reach; a production budget and a touring exhibition.
