GRADUATES from Winchester School of Art will be showcasing some of their work next month.
The Boiling Point Artist Collective is a group of 14 artists who came together to support each other in their first years of practice after graduating.
As part of OpenHand OpenSpace’s FRESH programme of postgraduate opportunities, they will showcase some of their work at the Oxford Road-based gallery from Thursday, April 6, through to Tuesday, April 11.
It will feature a mix of video works, sculptures, paintings, printmaking and installations, offering insights into each artist’s personal experiences of navigating a practice post-art school in today’s climate.
Visitors to the exhibition can expect to see prints exploring historic castles, and the environmental urgencies surrounding open-pit mining, films using archived footage, sculptures using 3D printing, and paintings investigating what a portrait can mean in the digital age.
The exhibition has been made possible with the support of a project grant from Arts Council England and Winchester School of Art.
The opening reception will take place on Thursday, April 6, from 6pm to 9pm, and the exhibition will be open to the public from Friday, April 7, through to Tuesday, April 11, from 11am to 6pm.
