Elemental(ism) brings together sculpture, photography, film and sound works, dealing with big ideas, big themes; nature, matter, universal forces and our relationship with the environment.

Ellie Doney, Stephen Cornford, Joe Duggan, Sophie Windsor Clive & Liberty Smith and Andrew Dodds reveal glimmers of unfathomable layers of reality; the terrible formless machinery that is the undercurrent of the temporal world, through acts of intervention, recorded observations of phenomena, found artefacts, plus work using traditional arts and craft materials.

The work sits among the city’s sense of purpose, its attempts to control, measure and value; a system where everything is accountable, measured. From an independent perspective, the work on show reflects the space in which it occupies: as temporal, and temporary.
