Helen Hammock & others @ Hollybush Gardens Gallery

We are delighted to present Carte de Visite curated by Lubaina Himid, featuring new work by Helen Cammock, Claudette Johnson and Ingrid Pollard.
This project unfolded over the space of a year in different locations including the print room in the School of Art, Design & Fashion at the University of Central Lancashire where Lubaina Himid is professor of contemporary art, leading the ‘Making Histories Visible Project – an exploration of the contribution of black visual art to the cultural landscape’. Our desire to be able to present work mostly unseen and spend time with it inspired this invitation. Himid’s answer was informed by life-long knowledge of the artists Claudette Johnson and Ingrid Pollard, choosing to expand on this duo with the more recent voice of Helen Cammock. Forebears and successors is a dialogue that must be continued.
