Melanie Manchot : People Places Propositions

16 Apr-10 Jul 2016

Overview

Towner presents the first major exhibition of new and recent work by London-based photographer, video and installation artist Melanie Manchot. People Places Propositions is the most significant exhibition of Melanie Manchot’s work to date in the UK, including the premiere of Out of Bounds (2-16), a cinematic two-part installation shot in the alpine mountains of Engelberg in Switzerland. Out of Bounds sits alongside the multi-channel video installations Twelve (2015), an exploration of lives spent in addiction and recovery, and 11/18 (2015) a nine-screen durational studio portrait, seven years in the making, which enquires into the nature of time, duration and commitment.
