Nothing New Under the Sun
21.02.10 – 14.03.10 West Wall gallery Five artists from Scotland have spent a month making a research blog, collecting what they have watched, read and listened to. These sources examine ideas of fictional reality and global connectivity. The exhibition, Nothing New Under the Sun is a collection of new works created on their residency in which their research and making collide. Over the course of the exhibition at Skaftfell, the artists will release several pirate radio broadcasts through their blog at thisisnothingnew.wordpress.com The group are based in Edinburgh and are all co-directors of Rhubaba Studios. rhubaba.wordpress.com
