Does your contemplation of the situation fuck with the flow of circulation? The Glasgow based duo of Joanne Tatham & Tom O’Sullivan pose this question to the audience to make us all aware of the concept of art as an exhibition.

They believe the ‘pieces’ are the foundation to an exhibition but the choreography and curation of those pieces is what works to create the experience of seeing the art and they aim to provide the public with a chance to re-analyse how they see art and why they see it as they do. By combining sculpture, painting, architecture, photography, performance, literature, institutional critique and curation the artists work to let the viewer understand their thinking processes, by providing an environment where consciousness of thought process is encouraged.
