Leeds Kirkgate Market AR Exhibition

The final stitch

I’m pleased to announce that “The Sound of the Kenwood Chef ” has been selected for the Leeds Kirkgate Market AR Exhibition (Augmented Reality). The artworks will be available to view Friday May 14th – Saturday May 15th 2021.

Event information can be found on Eventbrite available via this link.

In order to view the exhibition, please download the Overly App onto your mobile phone. Once at the exhibition space, aim your camera at the posters (you can see an example of one below) and press ‘Scan’.

“The exhibition AR art attraction contains eight different artists. People are intimidated by art at times, but many love technology. By combining the two, a fun interactive experience is created to showcase some beautiful pieces of art. How it works? The Overly App is an augmented reality (AR) app that creates an interactive experience of a real-world environment, allowing you to see things through your phone that you cannot see in real life. You go to your phone and open the Overly app. Look at the poster with your camera. Press scan on the overly app. The art work will then reveal itself.” Rhiannon Shaw, event curator, Redesigns.

The last year has been a challenging time for sharing and viewing art, hence I’m so happy that this is the second open air exhibition that my art has taken part in.

“MCR Sew Social will be hosting their first online exhibition for womxn artists and textile makers based in Greater Manchester in celebration of International Women’s Day. The theme is “What does International Women’s Day mean to you?”

Mcr Sew Social was established in 2018, now run by textile artists Rowan Bridgwood and Louisa Hammond. As a group composed mainly of womxn it has been a goal to showcase local textile artists’ work. International Women’s Day is a perfect opportunity to celebrate the collective voices of these womxn.” – Rowan and Louisa.
