Emotions are often fleeting and can be forever lost in a moment. A memory can be at one point beautiful, transient and wondrous and in the next filled with sadness and nostalgia - these experiences are unique for every individual and are the focal point for Bitter/Sweet

Bitter/Sweet brings together 6 artists from Newcastle and Sheffield to exhibit in Leeds for the first time. Each drawing upon their own Bitter/Sweet experiences and emotions, brand new bodies of work will be on display spanning animation, sculpture and a site-specific wall mural with free lemon-aid available at the preview.

Invitation to BITTER/SWEET exhibition, Assembly House, Leeds

Curator studio visit for Assembly House exhibition

Today Liam McCabe and Emily Garvey came for a studio visit. 

Liam McCabe is a visual artist, curator, writer and works on the Programme Team at East Street Arts based in Leeds. His artwork explores data, repetition and information overload.

Emily Garvey is a visual artist based in Newcastle. Her interests lie partially within the realm of the digital. Using 3D modelling software, she produces fantastical virtual worlds, which echo not only ideas of paradise but also well-known mundane environments, of which we are all familiar. Emily and Liam are curating BITTER SWEET, a group exhibition that will take place at Assembly House in Leeds in March this year.

We met to discuss ideas and plans for the exhibition.

It was really good to share my ideas with Liam and Emily and to hear about what some of the other artists are working on for the exhibition. It is shaping up nicely!
