In its third year, Platform and GSA's Sculpture and Environmental Art have worked in collaboration to offer the unique opportunity for final year students to create site related works at Platform, The Bridge. Over the past few months a selection of fourth year students have developed new art work in response to the architecture, surrounding area and the functions of the different facilities in The Bridge.

The exhibition will engage with the users of Platform and The Bridge in a variety of different ways, by exhibiting pieces of art works in unusual locations within the building; challenging our expectations and perceptions of visual art.

The exhibition will feature art works in the form of sculpture, film, photography, sound, installation, text and performance.

Sense Makes No Sense: David Sherry


Sense Makes No Sense David Sherry 16 February - 13 April 2013

Please join us for the preview on Friday 15 February, 7 - 9pm David Sherry’s art practice centres around performative ideas relating to everyday life and depicting ordinary experiences from a new perspective. Exploring beliefs, social interaction and real experience. Making works that re-access the acceptance of common values, exploring the thin vale of sanity and the contradictions in life. Sherry gains, through his work, an insight into the psychological diversity of any singular situation, fragmenting what is accepted and analysing a basic moment in day to day life. Conveying the idea that nothing is permanent or stable, questioning what is understood and re-evaluating a collective perspective. For his solo show at The Changing Room Sherry will present new video works alongside a new series of drawings & paintings.
