The Store
Opening: Thursday 11 May 7 - 10pm
11 - 14 May 2023
5-8pm Fri | 12-6pm Sat, Sun
Staffordshire St presents The Store, an exhibition and collaborative programme of events centred around a potato store in Norfolk.
Curated by Kaia Goodenough, The Store is a response to Tilly Wace’s interdisciplinary film and research project. Together they present an exhibition of film, photography and creative writing that use live actviations to create a metaphor for a source of energy. They question the multiplicity of dark spaces, embodiment, tangent thought and collective movement.
The gallery space will become a site for dance, music, film and community workshops that connect the photo, the potato and the body, celebrating the juxtaposition and similarities of playful abstraction, improvisation and repetition.
The exhibition, performance and film are accompanied by a specially commissioned score and sound design by Charlie Flynn.
