Early Career Programme exhibition at Kupfer, Groundwork

PV: Thursday 14 November, 6-9pm
Exhibition continues until 30 November
Monday - Friday 10am-5pm, Saturday 2-6pm
Groundwork showcases the outcome of a year-long residency as part of Acme’s Early Career Programme. It presents work by artists Sam Meredith (Adrian Carruthers Award), Anouk Verviers (Goldsmiths MFA Award), Joseph Ijoyemi and Anna Malicka (Helen Scott Lidgett Awards).
The different levels of Kupfer, from basement to first floor, act as areas to carve into. Each floor hosts site-sensitive interventions that lean into domestic and private interiors, fragments of text and sound from exteriors, sculptural and archival devices, and immersive installations encompassing video and research.
The exhibition reveals what has been navigated together, using the tailored mentoring programme through Acme as a sub-structure for individual work. There has been support and conversation, shared interests and research, intensive group activity and also moments of solitude in which members of the group have come and gone to pursue personal research or set up respective shows.
Anouk's installation has been supported by The Exhibitions Hub, Department of Art, Goldsmiths. Anna's work in the exhibition has been funded by State Culture Capital Foundation of Latvia.
