Make Do / Make Space

The works in this exhibition ask what it means to Make Do / Make Space. How circumstance shapes practice and how limitation breeds invention. From a found, rusted 1975 Ford Escort reborn as a kinetic sculpture, to building-site hoardings appropriated into installations carrying the history of the places they once guarded access, to foam mattresses transformed into monumental architectural follies. In each case, the artists have transformed a familiar material into something new, stripping it of its previous function and asking what else it might become, reflecting back the city they are working in: resourceful, resilient, and refusing to be written off.
