SUMMARY:FACT: FACT: Artist Tour with Amartey Golding
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Amartey Golding for a guided tour of his solo exhib
 ition\, which features a large-scale chainmail sculpture created in collab
 oration with imprisoned men from HMP Altcourse\, alongside a new audio wor
 k.\n\nBooking Essential — Free / Sat\, 24 May / 12:00\n\n\n\n\n\nAs you 
 follow the artist\, you are invited to reflect on how art can affect publi
 c attitudes\, influence decision-making in the justice system and create a
  space for dialogue and representation. This exhibition marks the conclusi
 on of FACT's multi-year Resolution project.\n\nAmartey Golding is a Brit
 ish artist who often turns to his Anglo-Scottish and Ghanaian ancestry by 
 way of a Rastafarian upbringing as a point of departure from which to expl
 ore the seemingly contradictory fabric of our human condition. Golding beg
 an his practice as a teenager\, selling his first works from his youth hos
 tel room. He went on to study Architecture\, Space\, and Objects at Centra
 l Saint Martins for three years before leaving to focus entirely on his pr
 actice. His design background continues to inform his work today\, often b
 lurring the practical with the conceptual.\n\nGolding works across a wide 
 range of mediums\, including drawing\, printmaking\, sculpture\, film\, ch
 ainmail\, and wig-making. He draws on a wide array of cultural references 
 – from popular culture and folklore to intuition and hearsay – to info
 rm his work. His process prioritises the knowledge of everyday people\, ce
 lebrating the unspoken truths that connect us all. Golding’s work is int
 uitive and focuses on visceral communication\, aiming to make work that dr
 aws from the valuable conversations taking place within the communities he
  resides in while putting those perspectives under scrutiny.\n\nGolding ha
 s exhibited internationally\, with solo shows at institutions including TR
 AMWAY Glasgow\, The Power Plant Toronto\, and has been commissioned by the
  V&amp\;A Museum\, Autograph ABP\, and Film and Video Umbrella.\n\n\n\n\n\
