Friday 31 May at 12pm | Join us for a conversation between the gallery artist Jodie Carey and Joseph Constable, Head of Exhibitions at the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill-on-Sea. The conversation will centre on Carey's new solo exhibition Guard at Edel Assanti.
About Jodie Carey
Jodie Carey's practice explores the universal human urge to make an impression on our surroundings. Through site-responsive sculptural installations, Carey's practice adopts culturally universal, age-old artistic methods of creation, often evoking ritualistic or primitive traditions. Through revisiting these techniques, her oeuvre emphasises the relationship between object making and commemoration, whilst also looking to the physical world as a repository of material memory.
Carey's recent exhibitions include Guard, Edel Assanti, London, UK (2024); MARY MARY, The Artist’s Garden, London, UK (2024 - forthcoming); Beyond the Matrix, 100 Bishopsgate, London, UK (2024); and Common Thread, New Art Centre, Salisbury, UK (2020).
