Long-term artworks at the gallery include pieces by Scott Myles, Jennifer and Susan Collis.

Karl Nawrot: Mind Walk #I
An array of drawings and prints reveal Karl Nawrot’s aesthetic sensibility as a curious union of the macabre and the childlike. The subjects of these monochrome pictures are various: complex architectural interiors rendered from memory; elementary graphics made with crude stencils and other drawing devices; and the occasional distorted figure. The exhibition suggests narrative paths through this material, presenting Nawrot’s work as an expanded comic.

Gunilla Klingberg: Parallelareal Variable
Gunilla Klingberg’s ‘Parallelareal Variable’ reveals a powerful set of electro-magnetic bands of energy forming Eastside Projects. Klingberg’s new site specific installation is the Stockholm based artist’s first solo show in the UK for over a decade and continues her cosmic kaleidoscopic feedback loops of spiritual, capitalist and consumer patterns as visual machines.
