Curated by AkiaArt and David Block

AkiaArt lives and works in Bath. She is interested in the phenomenology of space and the spiritual residue we shed as we move through time and place. Her work flits between different disciplines and is always challenging and sincere.

David Block is a multi-faceted artist based in Paris. His artistic mission is to put the sound into the visual arts. He works in the domains of sound, video and dance combined with the plastic arts. His music is “an intriguing electronica soundscape, an aural feast that entrances as much as the dance”. (Allan.F. 2018 Broadway Baby. Edinburgh Fringe)

Together, this dynamic duo will support your participation in a vibrant exhibition that celebrates and promotes your work.
