Prophecy - A Prediction That Something Will Happen In The Future
11th August - 6th October 2006
The Arches Artists
The first group show by Arches artists is to be staged over two venues, the bargate monument gallery and the newly converted Arch 07. The show features work by all resident artists and showcases the talent that resides here in Southampton.
The artist can be seen as a predictive medium, using information from visual and theoretic sources to refine and predict possible futures.
Is tomorrow a place that holds great fear or excitement for mankind? Should we be apprehensive about what is around the corner? Should we run and hide, or dance and celebrate that we have survived for this long? Is the future in the hands of humans, or is it just too late for us to repent?
