Transmission gallery presents Guest, a one-week project show with Carolyn Barrett and Harriet Tritton.
Transmission gallery’s project shows were conceived as a forum for artists to test out new ideas in public, a space for experimentation.
Carolyn Barrett has produced new video and sculpture for this exhibition. Barrett explores her relationship with her surroundings through improvised gestures, using the body and voice to test ‘potentials’ within her environment. Triggering the unconscious is crucial to the development of unsteady narratives and journeys within Barrett’s practice.
Harriet Tritton works mainly with drawing and video. The work Tritton has produced for Guest uses glass and paper-layering techniques in an exploration of the sculptural aspect of drawing. She has also produced a new video work involving her immediate surroundings and close relations.
Carolyn Barrett (b. 1984) graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2008, she now lives and works in London. Her recent exhibitions include Now I know my ABC’s at Studio Warehouse and Gorge Yourself at 111 Argyle Street.
Harriet Tritton (b. 1980) lives and works in Glasgow. Tritton graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2003. She has exhibited both locally and internationally; exhibitions include the group show Flounder in Amsterdam and a Transmission group show in Cologne. She co-founded Mary Mary Project Space in 2005.
