Awkward Objects
Preview: Sunday 1 June, 6-9pm
Exhibition open: 2 - 4 June, 12-6pm
Join us at Circus Artspace for this pop-up group exhibition of 18 artists co-ordinated by Circus Fellow Claire Gordon. This exhibition will serve as a testament to a collaborative curatorial process and the transformative power of embracing the 'awkward'. It celebrates the unique character of both the objects and the space, transforming them both into a compelling artistic experience.
Featuring artists:
Athena Anastassopoulos | Codie Anne | Ellie Atkinson | Liraz Attias | Clive Brandon | Rachel Bride Ashton | Kate Cameron Reid | John Ferguson | Nicola Gear | Claire Gordon | Jack Kay | Evija Laivina | Jan McCormack | Meg Miller | Elena Nieva | Robbie Rowland | Asher Sahan | Steve Smith
Circus Artspace and Highland Pride are delighted to present a free drop-in workshop on the eve of Inverness’ Pride March. Activate your activism and celebrate Pride in style by joining us to create your very own placard for the Pride March (Suitable for ages 5+). All materials are provided.
This event is free and open to LGBTQ+ folk and allies. This was a really fun event last year and we hope to see some repeat artists, as well as welcoming new ones!
After the Parade, come browse some zines from the Highland Zine Bothy collection in our wee reading area at the Highland Pride Market. We will also have a free drop-in table with materials if you’d like to make a zine of your own. No bookings required and participation is completely free. Just come as you are - whether it’s to have a chat, read or get quietly crafty!
The Highland Zine Bothy has been brought to life with the aim of celebrating zine activity with our local community by archiving and showcasing zines from the Highlands and beyond. The zine library was co-founded by Circus Artspace and DeZiners and has a collection of 300 zines housed in a heather thatched shed in Inverness.
