A Miricle Happened And We Knew What To Do - Exhibition at Glasgow Savoy Centre
Artists Rachel Lowther and Kerry Stewart occupy a unit in The Savoy Centre for the next four weeks, showing works including sculptures, fabrics and clothing (which will be for sale), specially re-upholstered furniture and various other interventions. The artists’ works explore themes of societal unrest, suppression of protest rights, social and economic precarity and the ubiquity of money.
The exhibition is inspired by the enduring community spirit and resilience of the Savoy Centre's family of traders and staff, and the artists will create a permanent new work which will remain in the centre after the exhibition has closed.
