Underland - Art Week Exeter 2023
Underland Passages
Erika Cann and Laura Robertson, featuring sound collaboration with Cameron Leaf
Taking over the original entrance to Exeter's underground passages during Art Week Exeter the artists use sculpture, sound, and print to explore human relationships to the ‘Underland’. Subterranean slime audio immerses the lower space whilst pulpy rock sculptures float, printed matter settles into crevices and plaster flowstone casts shadows across the walls. The show includes examples of each artist’s work alongside a collaborative installation — shifting our perceptions of geology, bodies and spaces as static entities.
