Together. Alone. 9 September - 4 October 2020
2020 may be the most transformative and turbulent year of the 21st century. It is redefining the way people live and connect worldwide. Humanity is experiencing a collective grief in which individuals feel both together and alone simultaneously. Despite the ongoing anxiety and disparity there continues to be countless acts of kindness and courage. The isolated figures in this series of work capture this state of flux. They appear detached and wounded yet unified by the vacant abyss in which they reside. There is a sense of hope and expectation for what is to come. — Dylan Jones, August 2020
