PLANTWORKS

A Factory As It Might Be

EXHIBITION

Wednesday 5 April - Sunday 21 May 2017

The artist Clare Mitten’s reimagining of A Factory As it Might Be – William Morris’s vision for how beautiful factories would act as centres of education and creativity – is influenced by Victorian science fiction and bio-inspired technology.

PLANTWORKS explores the relationship of Morris to industrial manufacturing through drawings and paintings of plant specimens, translated into a collection of cardboard models, before transforming back into 2D motifs.

PLANTWORKS is generously supported by the Arts Council and Bow Arts Trust.
