RAW ART FORUM NEXT EXHIBITION 

NUTOPIA PLUS

BIRDWOOD HOUSE,

44 HIGH ST, TOTNES

01 JULY  - 07 JULY

The Nutopia installation consists of eleven elements each made up of individual items housed in white display units mounted on cardboard delivery boxes. The Nutopia print suite is produced as a complementary piece to be shown alongside the main installation. The prints are based on the original graphics used on the installation labels.

The concept of Nutopia was that it would investigate the obsessive nature of 21st century consumerism, through an imaginary company fulfilling the expectations of people who want everything and more.

This first collaboration is one that has surprised them, inasmuch that it bears little or no resemblance to their own work - it has its roots in every day consumerism, within which they have created their own ‘medicinal’ product models - their mutual sense of fun has informed this particular collaboration; humour seemingly connects things. They investigate the every day - small things that may, or may not, affect us all.

Alongside Nutopia the four artists will show new work from their individual practice.

Raw Art Forum artists are: Aidan Cooper, Steve Neill, Jennifer Jayarajah, Fergus Cooper
