You are my only certainty that creates uncertainty, we live up in the clouds . . . as online and offline combine, where do we store our dreams, in our heads or in google? we are a generation who are seen ✔️ but never seen 👀 But the url can also be a comfort blanket, in a climate of ambiguity we can find ourselves in the algorithm, fall in love on facetime or bury ourselves in the browser.

when the clouds come in is an exhibition looking at how we can massage our online habits, as we run behind to catch the social in social media - inviting us to #pause, put our phones on airplane mode, and ask where we place ourselves in all this debris, dreams and data.

💁‍As part of this exhibition there will be two public events

www.wellness - Meditation workshop with Aimee Walker and Emily Simpson, Saturday 3rd October, 3-5pm

Leave those texts on read, put your phone on airplane mode, and join us for an afternoon of guided meditation. We have to ‘remind’ our modern minds to be mindful - it’s easy to lose ourselves in the likes, keep our heads in the cloud. Sometimes we’re too busy #living our best life to actually live our best life 🧘 Artists Aimee Walker and Emily Simpson invite you to #pause, and spend some time refreshing in the present.

Crate Conversations - Ralph Pritchard and Emily Simpson, Saturday 10th October, 3-5pm

Join artists Ralph Pritchard and Emily Simpson for a juice and a chat about digital detoxes. As online and offline combine, we need to update our manual for ‘good health’ to include our social media selves. We are the first generation to grow up online, and we are a l w a y s online. Do we need to update our ideas on intimacy as we update our browsers? And is it ok that you read my text and 5.45 and now its 5.47 and u havent replied nvm have a nice life 😶 Join us for a juice and an informal discussion on dating with all this data, and what it rly means to have no wifi ☁️
