You are warmly invited to Betty Marsh’s MA Fine Art Graduate Show “ Shared Marrow” at 37 Looe St.
Shared Marrow translates concepts explored in creative writings and critical essays, presenting them as physical objects. The artworks echo the artist’s observational studies, imaginative concepts and memories of her ritualised trail. Focusing on the ephemeral, on feint pencil markings and thin papers, the works’ fragile physicality records passing experiences that do not last.
Private View : Thursday 6th June / 5pm-7pm
Exhibition : Friday 7th June - Sunday 9th June / 11am-4pm
Venue: 37 Looe St, Plymouth, PL4 0DQ

to be featured in a screening of shorts alongside a curated international screening of experimental and artists films around the theme of sensory perception.
DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?
How can the sensory perception/subjective experience be communicated and challenged by filmmaking? How does film allow us to connect to others and the world by exchanging subjective realities?
One of the premises of neurodiversity is that the ways we see, hear, experience the world are slightly different and unique for every person. The ways we interact with the world make us who we are.
