Changing Tides
Exhibition Dates: Up to 3 February 2024.

A MIXED EXHIBITION OF WORK BY OUR TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS.
As part of our volunteer programme, we have an annual exhibition to showcase our volunteers’ artistic talents. Inspired by an art workshop led by Tegen-Mor Tossell at Growing Links’ Community Garden, this year our volunteer team were encouraged to explore a central theme of Climate Change and Sustainability. Using their unique perspectives and creative mediums, each artwork seeks to raise awareness, action, and meaningful conversation about climate change.

Come Build a Boat
Exhibition Dates: Up to 9 April 2024.

“If parts of a wooden ship are replaced one by one, until all the original components have been substituted, is it still the same ship?”

This thought experiment, referred to as The Ship of Theseus, was notably published by Plutarch the Ancient Greek historian and essayist in the first century CE.

In the context of Storm Warning, it is illustrative of the importance of collective action.

Over the duration of the exhibition a wooden boat will be assembled, disassembled, and reassembled, multiple times. If you would like to participate, come along to a drop-in workshop every Tuesday, 11:00-12:00 – no tools or experience necessary.

Harun Morrison is an artist and writer whose work often employs collaborative processes. His practice spans spatial design, text, video, and sound. He is currently an associate artist with Greenpeace UK. He has works in Storm Warning at Newlyn Art Gallery, and at The Exchange.

Storm Warning
Exhibition Dates: Up to 13 April 2024.

Storm Warning is a collaboration between Newlyn Art Gallery & The Exchange, and Focal Point Gallery, Southend-on-Sea, which seeks to raise awareness of the impact of the climate crisis on coastal communities in Mount’s Bay, and South Essex. It includes innovative artworks and engagement projects by Angela YT Chan, Rebecca Chesney with Lubaina Himid, Joey Holder, Andre Kong, Harun Morrison, Ellie Robinson-Carter, Something & Son, Heloise Tunstall-Behrens, and David Watkins. New commissions are presented simultaneously at each venue, exploring issues facing the two coastlines, alongside research into nature-based solutions that are relevant locally and resonate more widely. “The artists featured in this exhibition take a range of approaches, working with ecologists, activists, citizen scientists, marine biologists, and those working in the fishing industry. The resulting works range from the playful and immersive to projects which foreground the role artists can play as activists and strategists. We hope this exhibition will not just show the impact of the climate crisis on our locations but also highlight the change we can each make as individuals,” said James Green, Director Newlyn Art Gallery & The Exchange and Katharine Stout, Director, Focal Point Gallery.
