16 September to 21 January
This exhibition contains new and recent works, shifting the focus from our human-centric approaches to our environment, towards nature and the non-human. Gibson’s work questions society’s ceaseless cleansing and compartmentalisation of the outdoors. She explores this through sensory and material approaches and there is an element of “magpie” in her working process; shed or discarded matter – both natural and man-made – is gathered on a continuous basis and re-emerges in hybrids of sculptural objects and images, suggesting other potential balances in
our shared relationship with nature.
