Practical
Details
Through clay, textile and drawing, 'Comfort Me' reflects on undesirable expressions of emotions testing the conditionality of love.
‘Comfort me’ is both a provocation and a plea. A dare - to love, when it is inconvenient, ugly and dark. If it’s easy, it means nothing.
'Comfort Me' is a joint exhibition by Hazel Frost and Selma Augestad.
Launch event is 13th September, 6-8pm. This event is free and all are welcome, but rsvp encouraged. Drinks served will include a cocktail created especially for the exhibition by Anna Šebelová from Timberyard.
Selma Augestad is a Norwegian visual artist based in Scotland. Through a practice of untangling and interpreting personal memories, Selma explores wider social themes with influence from mythology and rituals, as sites of connection, struggle and liberation.
Hazel Frost is a visual artist, specialising in ceramics. Using clay as a language to respond to the environment, Frost explores relationships and nature through form and texture. Creating objects that sit between functional domestic ware and sculptural expression.
