Rites of passage appear in every known culture whereby unique handcrafted objects play an intrinsic role in the way we perform various rites – the wedding ring, christening shawl, funeral wreath. Fusing craft with live art Ceremony brings together an eclectic range of works, performances and projects that explore the performative relationship between object and ritual. Many of the works and projects have been especially commissioned for Ceremony and encompass a diverse range of practices ranging from cake decorating, metalwork, video, knitting, live art, quilting and floristry.
Ceremony is co-curated by Freddie Robins.
