PAPER

PAPER
a group exhibition conceived by Rochelle Fry

with Vanessa Billy, Dustin Ericksen and Giles Round.

The Four walls of the gallery have been covered with a single sheet of paper. The artists were invited to make work in relation to this modification of the gallery. Each work is a trace on the paper, and so drawing is the theme of this exhibition. The paper is to be re-used in a similar way in future exhibitions in different spaces.
