Date: 26.9.26 - 3.1.27
Time: 00:00
Location: Bluecoat, School Lane, Liverpool, L1 3BX
As part of Becky Beasley’s exhibition at the Bluecoat, we are delighted to present a selection of works by three Studio Me artists: Tony Carroll, Tess Gilmartin and Tom Rooney.
Becky Beasley met with members of Blue Room, the Bluecoat’s inclusive arts project, for several interactive sessions. Blue Room artists shared their practice and works with Beasley, along with their ideas around how to make exhibitions more inclusive. Part of this process involved learning about some of the themes within A Gentle Man (Part II) (1975–2029).
During these sessions, various exciting connections and overlaps emerged between the work of artists from Studio Me; Blue Room’s supported studio and the themes within A Gentle Man (Part II) (1975–2029). Because of this, Beasley chose to feature some of their work in the exhibition. The selected works share a kinship with Beasley’s interest in perceptions of space, sensory experiences, and how art can offer a glimpse into our inner lives.
