6th-8th June saw the very first exhibition Of B-VAC at the works gallery in Digbeth, Birmingham. The exhibition took the name B-VAC itself as the inspiration and artists could respond in any way to it. Here is my statement from the show.
I took the hyphen from the name B-VAC, which is defined as ‘ a short connecting line joining 2 seperate parts’. To me that spoke of the connection i have to my babies, both born and unborn and it immediately threw up images of the umbilical cord that for one magical moment in time allows that connection to become physically tangible and to take on flesh.
over 100 people attended the private view evening, which was a great success.
Great to see everybody elses translation of the same theme coming together in such a diverse show.
