Caught by the River

This place is not a passive landscape

18th September 2024

Responding to the 2024 Photo Fringe theme of ‘Common Ground’, This place is not a passive landscape is a joint exhibition of photography by Pippa Healy and Mandy Williams.

It unites two artists who animate and transform their experience of place to create emotional and metaphorical landscapes.

In Pippa Healy’s photographs different strata of memory, emotion and loss are experienced in the landscapes but are transformed into mysterious and enigmatic places that seek to transcend time and space. In Mandy Williams’ photographs the innocence of the land is questioned. Political narratives combine with the geology of the coastal chalk landscape, creating pathways of dislocation and disruption.

The exhibition runs at The Regency Town House, 13 Brunswick Square, Hove BN3 1EH from Friday 4 to Sunday 13 October, 11.00 – 16.00. Closed Monday.

Artist Talk and Private View: Saturday 5 October, 15.00 – 17.00

Photobook + Zines Special: Saturday 12 October, 14.00 – 16.00
