Ritual Touch
We would like to invite you to Opening Event of our upcoming exhibition, Ritual Touch at MIRROR. Thursday 26th: 5pm — 7:30pm.
Curated by talking on corners - Ella S.Mills and Lorna Rose, Ritual Touch features artists: Monica-Shanta, Gladys Paulus and Ingrid Pollard.
Ritual Touch brings together three artists for the first time, creating new conversations to which you are invited. Central to the exhibition is the materiality of touch and the significance of time and rhythm in the ritual of creating.
The artists' repetitive and slow creative practices become ritual; an act of making that shifts from a doing to a being with, where touch transcends the material and exists also as energy.
Monica-Shanta, Gladys Paulus and Ingrid Pollard MBE share a quiet depth to their practice, calling on rhythmic traditions, rooting huma presence and interaction in the natural world. A combination of mixed media installation and assemblage, the artists collapse historical and personal pasts, bringing to the fore a resonance of being imbued in the objects through touch. The embodied pasts of these objects release power and presence, where the ritual can become our own.
Opening Event: 26/01/23 - 5-7:30pm
Exhibition Duration: 27/01/23 - 11/03/23
