Overview

Accidentally on Purpose is an exhibition that will examine the relationship between success and failure through the use of common place materials and repetitive processes, exploring recurring problems and the strategies for (re)approaching them. The exhibition will be accompanied by an online publication, audio project and public programme. Curators Candice Jacobs and Fay Nicolson have selected works that embrace intentional mistakes whilst challenging aesthetic decisions, sincere gestures or logical actions. Featuring: Becky Beasley, Rachel Lois Clapham & Emma Cocker, Karen Cunningham, Michael Dean, Cyprien Gaillard, Ryan Gander, Paul Graham, Jonathan Monk, Rose O’Gallivan, Edit Oderbolz, Dan Rees, Clunie Reid, George Shaw and Ryszard Wasko.
