The Material Matters Collective returns to Liverpool’s Bridewell Gallery with TRANSMISSIONS – the next major project since their critically-acclaimed residency Into the Wyld at the Williamson Art Gallery in 2024.
TRANSMISSIONS is a four-episode exploration of correspondences between the animate, inanimate and the metaphysical. Across four interconnected exhibitions, each artist of Material Materials will use the historic fabric of the Bridewell complex to invoke dialogue with the spaces and those who inhabit it – past, present and future.
It is conceived as an anthology in four episodes:
The programme will include gallery tours by Material Matters artists, an exhibition bookshop selling new titles published by the collective, plus signed artists’ editions. A reading area will also be available. At the close of the exhibition a Long Table discussion event with the artists will occur, check out socials for booking details nearer the time.
Material Matters is an artists’ collective and co-operative engaged in artistic and curatorial practices exploring the inter-relationship between materiality, aesthetics and performativity under a collaborative praxis the artists call ’emotional minimalism’.
