A playful art & photography exhibition exploring cemeteries from around the world and how we remember the dead.
Photos, objects, stories & decorations show some of the ways we commemorate, from the traditional to the more unusual. And this will be further explored by artwork including drawing, sculpture, installation, film, performance, craft, writing and music.
Artists: Carla Conte, Hin, Pablo Delgado, Pia Interlandi, Shehnoor Ahmed, Tina Bueno, Rachel Wallace, Kai Yoshino, Candida Lucca, CJ Chandler, Owl & the Abacus, Steve Ferrar, Robin Bath, Matthew Fleming, Giovanni Ferri, Sabra Lawrence and Patrick Harrison.
