Dorset Place Gallery, 1 Dorset Pl, Kemptown, Brighton, BN2 1ST
Exhibition Preview 6 November 17.30-19.30
The selection of work in this exhibition offers various ways to reimagine how human and non-human natures relate to one another with photography as a disclosive medium embedded in ecological relations. This is an exhibition by colleagues in the photography research group at the University of Brighton that explores ecological themes through depictions of human and animal bodies and environments.
The exhibition presents different approaches to photography that refer to and challenge traditional realist categories of picturing, as well as contrasting methods of image appropriation, montage and collage. Re-imagined Ecologies contributes new perspectives on relations of art and ecology to reflect upon current circumstances and consider uncertain futures.
Re-imagined Ecologies builds upon recent photography research group activities, including previous exhibitions during Photo Fringe 2024 in University of Brighton School of Art and Media Dorset Place and Willmot Galleries, an exhibition responding to the British Antarctic Survey Photography Archive and Stranger than Fiction at Phoenix Art Space Project Space in 2024.
Exhibition curated by Fergus Heron, featuring work by Holly Birtles, Daniel Campbell-Blight, Zoe Childerley, Rachel K Gillies, Fergus Heron, Åsa Johannesson, Martin Seeds.
Opening Times: Weekdays 10:00-17:00, Saturday 12:00-16:00 (Closed Sunday)
