About Jerwood Survey III:
Jerwood Survey III is a major biennial touring exhibition that presents new commissions by 10 early-career artists from across the UK, providing a distinctive snapshot of current artistic concerns and approaches in the visual arts.
The artists exhibiting at Collective for the final stop on its tour are: Che Applewhaite, Aqsa Arif, MV Brown, Philippa Brown, Alliyah Enyo, Sam Keelan, Paul Nataraj, Ciarán Ó Dochartaigh, Ebun Sodipo and Kandace Siobhan Walker. The artists’ works wrestle with complex subjects that are inextricable from the concerns of our time through the lens of photography, installation, sound, moving image and sculpture; addressing themes from colonialism, climate change and healing to gender, sexuality, folklore and spirituality.
