comunicato stampa

Please join us for the exhibition opening on the evening of Saturday, May 3, from 6 to 9pm. (Opening remarks will be at 7:15pm; cocktails and light snacks will be served).

Spring Workshop has welcomed artist Christodoulos Panayiotou to a two-month residency. During his stay, Panayiotou embarked on a project in China's Guangdong province, researching what has become home to the world's largest concentration of artificial flower factories. Christodoulos invited fellow artist Philip Wiegard to run an eleven-day workshop where thirty-two children aged 8-15 created handmade wallpaper in a series of patterns developed by the artist from a historic artisanal technique that requires the small fingers of children.

The research and workshop programmes will culminate in an exhibition ''The Permeability of Certain Matters'' that will be open from May 3 to July 13, and which will feature Panayiotou’s new photography works against the confrontational backdrop of Wiegard’s wallpaper. Topics such as artisanship and mass production, pre-industrial and globalized production, representation, economy and the history of child labor are central to the exhibition.
