Fault Lines at Freelands Foundation Exhibition publication

Published on the occasion of the exhibition Fault Lines at Freelands Foundation 14 March – 14 April 2019

The exhibition Fault Lines was curated by Freelands Artist Programme Curator, Edward Ball. The show connected work from four UK-based artists (Jonathan Baldock, Alice Channer, Angela de la Cruz, Holly Hendry) whose sculptural works, and the material processes that underpin them, suggest a ripple of instability in their very foundations.

Each of the exhibition’s four UK-based artists make work that invokes sculptural metaphors of the fault line, a geological fault or crack in the ground that suggests an inherent weakness or precarity; the texts in this publication explore the ways in which the artists’ work allows emotional and interior states to bubble up to the surface.
