Garth Gratrix : Shy Girl
18 Jan-28 Mar 2020
Grundy Art Gallery
Blackpool FY1 1PU

Shy Girl is Garth Gratrix’s first solo exhibition in the North West. Gratrix works internationally as a curator, director, and interdisciplinary artist, whose practice incorporates sculpture, installation and mixed media. Often referential of Queer culture and aesthetics, Gratrix’s work exists within a simultaneously proud and problematic context of local identity, making its prominent display here in his birthplace of Blackpool, exceptionally fitting.
