Dimension
7 May - 13 June
Everything that exists is determined by its dimensionality. Everything has scale from the pyramids to the proverbial grain of sand, from a Richard Serra slab to a Bethan Huws coracle comprised of a single length of grass. Discrepancies between scales are usually ignored in our daily lives as everything we do is typically immured within predictable routines.
The question of dimension is not simply determined by macro/micro polarities either. The scale of something is also fundamentally a question of value. Typically, in our overwhelmingly capitalist culture, that which occupies most space is considered most valuable and important.
Nor is the dimension of something necessarily determined by its visibility. An aroma, sound or action, is proportional. Whether something smells or sounds very good or very bad cause that smell or sound to occupy space in undeniable ways.
This exhibition focuses on the myriad implications of dimension and scale. It brings together a diversity of perspectives from the global to the parochial, the monumental to the miniscule, the unmissable to the frequently disregarded.
