Exhibition News: The Hospital Club


Charley Peters, Colour Study (2015), acrylic on linen, 30cm x 30cm. Installed in The Hospital Club


Curators Ali Hillman and Charlie Levine have chosen work for a solo exhibition in The Hospital Club, London. The exhibition coincides with a screening of works from the Sluice_ Screens competition: 'Peters' work compliments the video works on display with a look at post-digital landscapes. Interested in the point of collapse between two and three dimensions, her practice examines notions of folded space and visual construction.'
There will be a reception at The Hospital Club, 24 Endell Street, London WC2H 9HQ on Saturday 16th January from 6pm, following the Sluice_ Screens event at 4.30pm. 

To attend please RSVP to rsvp@sluice.info
