Catching Forty Winks

This October, Catching Forty Winks emerges from a year-long residency at Assembly House, and supported by Leeds Art Gallery and Leeds Art Fund.

Featuring work from Accelerator Bursary recipients Hannah Guy, Reece Kelly and Alegria Repila Smith, Catching Forty Winks is an exhibition spanning photography, sculpture, textiles, and sound.

This dialogue between the artists' diverse practices, explores memory, emotion and the unknown. Blending personal experience with dreamt realities, hidden obsessions and history, each artist dives below the surface. The artworks are all at sea, as they dredge up artefacts and narratives that articulate the sunken passions which make each of us fallible, nuanced, and ultimately human.

The Accelerator Bursary is a new programme which supports early-career artists in Leeds following their undergraduate degrees. It is funded by Leeds Art Fund and delivered by Leeds Art Gallery in partnership with Assembly House.
