Three FASS graduates are opening their group art exhibition at a local gallery this Saturday, 1st May!
Georgina Harris, Kasia Tatys and Nuria Rovira completed their internships as Assistant Curators at the White Elephant gallery in Morecambe last year, while in the final year of their Fine Art degrees. They then set up their own shared studio space in the Arndale Centre. Now they are excited to be back at the White Elephant with their first exhibition!
All students and staff are warmly invited to visit the exhibition and/or attend the online opening event on Tuesday 4th May. Please see details below.
Exhibition description:
CARTOGRAPHY: CARBON, PAINT, MUD is a group show from three emerging artists that grew from a period of shared working spaces, ideas and resources. Georgina Harris, Kasia Tatys and Nuria Rovira ask the question How did we get here? Here being a pause, and an attempt to navigate oneself, in their place of work, Morecambe bay, and in the confusing climate of these current times.
This exhibition of paintings, drawings and multi-media installation explores alternate map making, sense of place, worlds of perception, and encounters between the body and the landscape.

The discussion will be followed by a Q&A of questions from audience members.
