About

To celebrate Culture Days 2019, we are hosting an Open House at UNIT 115! Come discover our gallery space, meet our September artist, Anna Soper, and see her newest work featured in this exhibition: Stardust.

Kingston Arts Council Office

Unit 115

Tett Centre for Creativity & Learning

Sunday, 29 September, 10am-2pm

Through a combination of cyanotype photography and digital collage, Stardust draws out the striking conceptual links between the microcosm and the macrocosm—Beta vulgaris is a plant. Beta Centauri is a star. Referencing ancient and modern star atlases alike, Stardust celebrates the cosmos, encapsulated in the seed.

Please consider bringing seeds saved from your garden for our seed swap—a free exchange of seed which will take place in the gallery on Sunday, September 29th!
