Realms
Carl Freedman Gallery, Margate
29th September – 10th November 2024
Within these realms, new possibilities for life, love, liberation, and joy flourish, transcending the limitations of our current society. Through large scale paintings and installation, each artist reveals their unique vision of alternative realities. Whether rooted in reality and memory, or taking myth and folklore as a starting point, these artists’ journeys are united by boundless imagination and hopeful potential. From abundant landscapes to enchanted narratives the show offers glimpses into different dimensions where the barriers of conventionality fade away, and the spirit of exploration reigns supreme.
This exhibition - curated by Gemma Rolls-Bentley - invites you to journey beyond the confines of our reality to explore hidden stories and secret worlds envisioned by a group of nine international artists including April Bey, TM Davy, Laura Footes, Leasho Johnson, Tali Lennox, Kris Lock, Jessie Makinson, Emma Steinkraus and Georg Wilson.
