‘A Closer Distance’ explores four female artists reflections on human correlation. The Artists have been brought together due to their contemplative explorations of the body, intimacy and the need for human kind to explore such themes. The exhibition speaks of both closeness and divide, through a discussion of public and private space and physical bodily connections. As well as personal reflections on such topics, connections to external personal histories are also explored.
