Towner Gallery

Drawing the unspeakable.

In a nutshell, a fantastic collection of thought-provoking works.

It was not a light, entertaining display of images, and there were moments when I felt uncomfortable with what I was seeing.

My reaction to this image was that of a voyeur. I felt as though I was one of the persecutors, watching and waiting for the information gained from this interrogation. It was very uncomfortable to be in that position. Powerful.

Pain. Pure and simple pain.

The ominous size of that shadow!

The narrative between David Dimbleby and his daughter Lisa provided a brilliant visual and informative device to thread a path through the works. I will remember this for my show….

By the time we left the exhibition, we were exhausted.

The content did not sit lightly in this exhibition. Experiencing the human condition in such a way was a challenge. But worthwhile nonetheless.
