Exhibition: Passages of Time – until May 10
The current exhibition is Passages of Time – a look back at the past to think about how we can build a better future. Contemporary social and political culture is deeply rooted in the conception of the heroic individual. In her book The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction, Ursula K. Le Guin gives a reading of the historical narrative of human history as something collective and collaborative.
Building on this idea, Passages of Time is a three part programme examining alternative understandings of our social narratives and the models of organisation which reflect them. The first chapter will consider the historical roots of our discourse the second how these are manifested in the present and the third how we can effect change.
