Wink Wink

An exhibition celebrating queer lived experience.  Curated by Garth Gratrix.

The artists include Harold Offeh, Ro Robertson, SHARP, Topher Campbell, Chester Tenneson, Jez Dolan, Derek Jarman, Rene Matić, Helen Cammock, Daniel Fountain, Sarah-Joy Ford, Garth Gratrix, Jenkin van Zyl, Trackie McLeod, Harry Clayton-Wright, Jacob Talkowski, Parham Ghalamdar, Sunil Gupta, Lothar Götz, Ally Rosenberg, Will Hughes, Rafal Zajko, Stuart Semple and Jonathan Baldock.

Wink Wink playfully hosts a space to navigate these thoughts and experience other lives we may not see or be in allyship with regularly.  Sculpture, drawing, mixed media, textile and film are installed through The Whitaker engaging us with work that represents and abstracts identity.

Visitors can explore and follow what they are drawn to, curious by, and stumble across.  It isn't telling you anything, it simply invites you to cruise a world differently for a moment.  Let us flirt with how else we may do things tomorrow.
