Open Call: Soft Ground
16/11/2025 Elephant and Castle, London, London
Soft Ground explores the fragile space between intention and transformation. In this exhibition, the ground beneath us is not fixed but ever-shifting - an unstable surface where ideas and actions are always incomplete. Here, making falters and meaning blurs, as the process of becoming takes precedence over resolution. Knowledge is an evolving force, not a fixed point, guiding and reshaping our experience. Through works that evoke both stillness and motion, Soft Ground invites us to reflect on creation, learning, impermanence, and the delicate balance between what has been and what is yet to come.
