Spring1883 at MARS
EXHIBITION TEXT
4 – 7 AUGUST 2021
‘she told me it was in room 422 so I went…’
For this year’s iteration of SPRING1883, MARS Gallery is delighted to spring back from lockdown with artworks guaranteed to put a spring into your step. All the elements that make MARS unique will be on display – the drama of Atong Atem, the eroticism of Scotty So, the wry and dry humour of Kenny Pittock, and the otherworldliness of Penelope Davis’ creations, will transform MARS Gallery into a realm of phantasmagoria, a hallucinogenic potpourri of the whimsical, a world of the wonderous and the wicked, the sensual and the strident.
“At MARS we pride ourselves on eclecticism,” says gallery director Andy Dinan. “Exotic and erotic at times to be sure. But also thoughtful and considered and skilful and a lot of fun along the way.”
