‘Clothed’ is a rummage through wardrobes and suitcases of folks we might have known. What will these storytellers, with their captivating colours and layers of texture and expression, tell of their life and times?
‘The Socially Distant’ is a collection of works exploring how our day-to-day habits and thoughts have changed over the course of the last year.
