FOR THEY THAT SOW THE WIND
This is Swiss artist Julian Charrière’s first solo exhibition in the UK which includes sculpture, documented performance, installations, photographs and film. Charrière is a conceptual artist whose activities and interventions during the first decade of his career have taken him to some of the remotest regions of the planet. Much of his work is concerned with time, the continuous cycle of past, present and future, as well as sudden and gradual physical transformations that have occurred naturally or due to human activity.
