New Undershed Exhibit -FRAMERATE: Pulse Of The Earth

Following the interesting sing the body electric exhibit let's go and check out this new undershed exhibit. FRAME RATE Pulse of the Earth.

Description:

A unique portrait of the British landscape in flux, this artwork tells a story of great change caused by human industry and the immense forces of nature.

Pieced together from thousands of daily 3D time-lapse scans, this process of change becomes visible on a scale impossible to see with the lens of a traditional camera – or with the human eye.

In a dark room, you are surrounded by meditative imagery as sounds drift through the space.

A pumpkin grows. Spring breaks. A thousand tonnes of steel are crushed. Sand ebbs and flows while a cliff retreats. 268 cows are milked. Leaves turn to amber. 519 pints of milk are drunk.

In the context of our rapidly changing planet and by moving through moments of destruction, extraction, harvest, construction, growth and erosion - FRAMERATE: Pulse of the Earth asks you to think and feel in another time scale: geological time, seasonal time, tidal time.

Book a ticket for the 16.00-19.00 pm slot here.

Before heading to the Undershed we will first meet at Arnolfini and go and check out the free exhibit by Barbara Walker:Being here.

Described as one of the most important British artists working today, Being Here charts Walker’s compelling figurative practice, from the 1990s to today. Walker’s wide ranging formal experimentation in painting, drawing and embossed print techniques critically engages with social justice and belonging, transforming Black presence in contemporary society and throughout history.

We will meet at Arnolfini from 15.00 pm then head to the Undershed from 16.00 pm.

Once we are done let's have a coffee or drink in the Watershed cafe bar and discuss what we think of it all.
