Activating her installation, Aphotic Archaeology, artist and musician Alliyah Enyo will present a durational performance, an ethereal story echoing a futuristic aphotic apocalypse (an apocalypse in a deep sea) and a strange creature that wakes there.
Free admission and no booking required: visitors are invited to drop in at any time during the performance – but space may be limited.
Aphotic Archaeology features in our new exhibition, Jerwood Survey III. Jerwood Survey 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’ 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.
