Seeing and Knowing: New Perspectives in Furniture is a group exhibition featuring the work of Bryn Davies, Brandon Harrison, Jess Humpston, Daniel Little and Georgia Szymanski.
Furniture holds an interesting dichotomy within your everyday lives: it is a phenomenon that spans the artistic and the functional, from complex to minimalist. Like all craft, it has been deeply affected by changes in culture, trends, and technology.
The purpose of this group exhibition is to encourage the viewer to explore different ways of seeing, to bring curiosity to the mundane and to challenge the familiarity, preconceptions and 'knowing' that influence your view of objects, in this case furniture. This exhibition hopes to be a celebration of the human aspect in making, the beauty of everyday things, to shed light on the familiar and allow the viewer to explore, touch and experience furniture, its material, and its process from a different perspective.
