Spectral Paradigms - Tooting exhibition - 5th-18th May 2017

What happens when silenced ‘ghosts’ from the past and present interrupt the everyday, the familiar? When the ‘unreal’ enters the realm of ‘real’ and the invisible becomes visible? Within layer upon layer of historical visual representation and today, media representation, ‘reality’ has become a shadow of a shadow of a shadow.

Spectral Paradigms is a contemporary art exhibition taking place at All Saints Church Tooting, as part of the Wandsworth Arts Fringe Festival 2017.

Private view : Friday 5th May 6-8pm
