Through interactive elements and participatory experiences\, Kerrison challenges viewers to consider the constraints of a dulthood and the enduring importance of embracing moments of spontaneity a nd joy.\n\nWith "Chwarae Teg / Fair Play\," Sorrell Kerrison invites you t o rediscover the magic of playfulness and the profound significance of emb racing the present moment.

Hailing from Wale s and now residing in Liverpool\, I am driven by a profound curiosity to e xplore the intersection of tactile craftsmanship and digital innovation th rough my work and practice.\n\nMy artistic journey revolves around reimagi ning conventional textile methods\, from intricate embroidery to the timel ess art of quilting\, into captivating creations that beckon further explo ration. Sustainability lies at the heart of my practice\; I meticulously s ource materials from charity shops and salvage items destined for landfill \, infusing new life into forgotten treasures.\n\nThe symbiotic relationsh ip between tactile textiles and dynamic animation fuels my creative vision . I revel in the juxtaposition of these seemingly disparate elements\, wea ving narratives that blur the boundaries between the physical and the digi tal realms.\n\nCentral to my artistic ethos is the belief in fostering act ive engagement with my audience. Through workshops and interactive exhibit ions\, I invite individuals to become co-creators\, empowering them to sha pe the evolution and perception of my work. I endeavor to cultivate a sens e of participation\, where viewers transcend the role of passive spectator s and become integral contributors to the artistic dialogue.\n\nAs a versa tile and multidisciplinary artist\, I am committed to continual growth and exploration. My aspiration is to push the boundaries of traditional mediu ms\, perpetually seeking innovative avenues to merge disparate skills and materials in ways that inspire wonder and delight.\n\n\n\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.artinliverpool.com/wp-content/upload s/2024/03/unnamed-17-scaled.jpg CATEGORIES:Exhibitions LOCATION:Convenience Grange Precinct Pop Up\, Old Marks &\; Spencer\, 39 Borough Rd\, Grange Precinct\, Birkenhead\, Wirral\, CH41 2YE\, United Ki ngdom GEO:53.389078;-3.024802 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Old Marks & Spencer\, 39 Bo rough Rd\, Grange Precinct\, Birkenhead\, Wirral\, CH41 2YE\, United Kingd om;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Convenience Grange Precinct Pop Up:geo:53.38 9078,-3.024802 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20231029T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0100 TZOFFSETTO:+0000 TZNAME:GMT END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20240331T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
