VESTIGES, hARTslane Gallery, 2022
An exhibition of sculpture by Ali Darke and CJ Simpson
Vestiges: the signs that something has passed - a tangible reminder, a fragment or remnant of what has been and gone, an original purpose obscure and redundant. Here are the visual echoes, recorded in the meticulous refinement of the objects made by the artists and intense labour of their craft, honed through shaping, sanding and stitching.
