Emma Critchley, Single Shared Breath, 2011, video installation
|
This, the 4th annual Open West competition, has been selected from an international submission, by organisers Lyn Cluer Coleman and Sarah Goodwin, together with artists Iain Andrews and Dan Chadwick. 90 works by 55 artists are on show. The cathedral is a formidable space in which to show contemporary art - however Lyn and Sarah have exercised great curatorial skill and sensitivity in their installation of the work which is respectful of the architectural space but not overwhelmed by it.
A selection of works is illustrated below.
