SCOTT COVERT
25th January - 26th March 2023
For nearly forty years, Scott Covert’s practice has evolved around his long-standing series of Monument paintings: rubbings of gravestones in chalk, oil stick or charcoal on canvas and paper. In this decades-long project, he has accumulated a vast collection of works. This is the artist’s rst solo presentation outside of the US.
Until 12th February 2023
This major exhibition explores the different ways we see and are seen. Bringing together 144 objects and artworks, it invites visitors to encounter different experiences of sighted, partially sighted and blind people to consider the subjectivities of vision and blindness and question the central place sight holds in human society. In Plain Sight unfolds across four themes: symbolism of the eye, bias in visual perception, eyewear and identity, and the interconnection between senses.
