IT’S ONLY A GIFT (IF YOU SEE IT AS A GIFT) by Grace Dewar and Laurie Oxenford brings together the spatial practices of Megan Cope, Renato Antinao, Georgia Morgan, Shan Turner-Carroll & Elliot Bastianon. Connected by an openness to chance, this group exhibition interrogates the potentials of exhibition-making, curatorial outcomes and social practice.

Across their disparate and resourceful forms of spatial experimentation, these five artists explore industrial materials inviting us to consider the urban landscape and how we move through it. Via photography, video, installation and sculpture, this exhibition exposes the process of making, manifesting in materials that, contextually, can hold intrinsic and physical value. The exhibition positions everydayness as a gift to offer new visual dialogues, multiple perspectives and a deeper understanding of public space.
