Developed from a summer 2022 research residency at Two Temple Place, this exhibition showcases 10 contemporary artists working in sculpture, installation, painting, photography, VR and film.
Each artist has produced a new body of work in response to the eccentric architecture of Two Temple Place and its complex historic narratives, using their own responses to the building and its ideological challenges to shape work for its rooms.
Exhibiting artists: Josephine Chime, John Costi, Jack Evans, Chlo? Louise Lawrence, Gabriela Pelczarska, Joshua Phillips, Sabrina Shah, Yambe Tam, Sam Williams, Yui Yamamoto.
Participating artists were chosen through open recruitment by a panel comprising Nina Shen Poblete, independent curator and artist, Jerome, artist and Senior Lecturer, Painting, Camberwell College of Arts, Rebecca Hone, Head of Exhibitions, Two Temple Place and Eric Thorp & Nicholas Stavri, co-founders, Thorp Stavri. The research residency enabled the artists to consider their own processes while exchanging ideas and testing new creative ground.
The exhibition is conceived and curated by Thorp Stavri with Two Temple Place.
Inside: a Thorp Stavri & Two Temple Place Exhibition 28th January – 26th February 2023 twotempleplace.org
