A new exhibition at Williamson Art Gallery explores Wirral’s magical Hilbre Island and the psychological connections we make with landscape
Space is the Place Act 2: A Transfigured Movement in Time is the second collaborative exhibition from Merseyside-based artists Patric Rogers and Angelo Madonna.
In this multi-media art and film experience, the artists take the uninhabited archipelago of Hilbre Island in the Dee Estuary, as a jumping-off point to explore concepts of psychogeography and psycho-magic through a series of conceptual and symbolic artworks and film.
Space is the Place Act 2 encourages the viewer to consider the processes and practices through which we, as human beings, connect aspects of our conscience such as memories, associations, myth, and folklore to the landscapes we inhabit.
The ideas and concepts behind the exhibition will be further explored in a concurrent events programme. This includes film screenings and Q&A sessions with the artists and performers of the film A transfigured movement in time.There will also be a performative lecture and creative exploration with performance artist and lecturer at Liverpool Hope University.
