Explore our Exhibition
Mind + Matter: Towards Co-Creation follows six artists’ journeys through their practices as they explore how artists and scientists can work together, identifying where there is space to co-create new understanding and connecting diverse areas of study - from slime mould investigations to underwater ecosystems and Tourette’s Syndrome. Join an exclusive Exhibition Tour to hear more from our curator about the themes and ideas behind the work.
Self-Guided Sculpture Walk
Grab a Sculpture Map from the gallery desk and take a refreshing walk around campus to explore the outdoor sculptures for yourself! The Sculpture Walk forms part of the University Art Collection and presents an eclectic group of works which map the changing characteristics of British Sculpture since the 1950s.
