Abstract

I curated this solo exhibition by contemporary artist Alex Impey as part of the exhibition programme at The Hunterian. I received funding from the Henry Moore Institute to support the commissioning of new sculptural work by Impey, and that work formed part of an investigation of technology and animality in a range of mediums, including sculpture, film, installation and text. An artists' book was published as part of the exhibition, and it was accompanied by a film screening plus Q&A with Australian director Dan Ross, and a 'finnissage' with contributions from Impey, entomologist Dr Oskar Brattstrom and accompanying artists films. The exhibition was Impey's first solo show at a public institution, and reflects and ongoing interest in his practice, which began in the early 2010s.
