A Gathering of Unasked Possibility is an exhibition and series of events by artists, researchers, and advocates who interrogate issues of contemporary precarity. They have dedicated their practices to addressing a range of issues - climate, political, economic, social - with calls for progressive responses that engage with lucid, active hope as ballast. A Gathering creates a propositional space with breathing room for alternative ways of thinking, expressing, and being.
A Gathering of Unasked Possibility is a travelling exhibition and event programme launching in London in October 2024, arriving in Somerton, Somerset in Spring 2025 and Beacon, New York In Autumn 2025.
A Gathering next travels to:
ACEarts, Somerton, UK 8 March - 26 April 2025
AU Gallery, Beacon, NY Autumn 2025
Curated by Judith Rodgers, A Gathering crafts an interactive space and exhibition that invites what is possible without demand. Transporting us to an experience far from our daily existence and yet intimately connected to it.
Artists Jo Ball, Kelly M O’Brien, and Lydia Halcrow, draw out and explore themes around ecological uncertainty and relational entanglement. Their work leverages creative and hope-filled perspectives, offering both ballast and antidote to the precarity of current times.
The artists present new work spanning sculpture, wall-based art, installation, mixed media and print, navigating and holding complex ideas with care and curiosity.
