UAL Photography and the Archive Research Centre (PARC)

Date:

Opening Party- Thursday 2nd March6pm-8pm
Coinciding with the Moose on the Loose Book Launch

Following on from the highly successful 2014 show Making Time: New Photographic Constructions, and 2015 show Photo Pioneer: Photo Primitive at Penwith Society Gallery. William Arnold, Andy Hughes, Melanie King and Oliver Raymond Barker will be exhibiting new works that utilise a range of analogue and digital processes to generate their individual visions. From William Arnold’s beautiful sequence of cameraless botanical prints to Melanie King’s astronomical cyanotypes that ‘draw from the heavens’ ; from Andy Hughes iconic Plastic Photo-Totem to Oliver Raymond-Barker’s visceral prints exploring the nature of stone - this show is an exciting exploration into landscape and the material potential of photography. Photo Pioneer: Photo Primitive is part of an ongoing concern to develop new audiences and opportunities for the photographic arts within Cornwall. Photo Pioneer: Photo Primitive is a partner of the London Alternative Photography Collective.

Unstable Exhibition, selected through EXPOSURE for FORMAT International Photography Festival 2015.

Organised by Melanie King (Director of London Alternative Photography Collective, Anthony Carr and Claire Reece (Hemera Collective) 

Artists:
Anthony Carr, Melanie King, Jo Gane, Ky Lewis, Nettie Edwards

Unstable was an exhibition of heat sensitive and photographic works which are unfixed. Visitors to the exhibition had the opportunity to interact with the exhibited work, so that it changed gradually during the course of the exhibition. Unstable challenges the concept of the photograph as “evidence” or “proof” in a playful and interactive way.
