Playing Games
This is a Past Event and has been Archived.
Do you remember sandcastles, playground games and skipping rhymes; scraped knees and bedtime stories? Memories of childhood is the theme of the latest contemporary art exhibition at The Point, Playing Games. Chosen for their playfulness, each piece in the exhibition aims to encourage the viewer to see the world through the eyes of children, to remind them of their own early years’ experiences. Artists featured include Salisbury-based Henny Burnett, whose work in the exhibition is based on extracts from a child’s hand-written World War Two journal and exercise book; Dundee-based illustrator Lindsey Gardiner whose hand-drawn pieces are influenced by all things playful; Swedish artist Lisa Pattersson whose latest work centres around memories and nostalgia.
Playing Games runs from January 14 to April 29 as part of The Point’s Watch This Space contemporary art programme at The Point in Eastleigh. Entry is free. For more details, visit www.thepointeastleigh.co.uk or www.creativeeastleigh.co.uk
