Quay Arts’ Open 2015 winner Joanna Kori, presents an exhibition of six tableaux, forming a response to previous and current uses of the Quay Arts building.
Constructed from gum-strip paper and linseed oil, see the history of Quay Arts come alive in the gallery through theatrical suspensions and digital intervention; the pigeons, the beer barrels, the food and the music, all representing a romantic vision of the past, present and future.

QR codes are installed in the gallery and can be scanned via a smart phone – giving you access online to snippets of video, animation and soundscapes, all relating to the installations in the exhibition.
