A Great Big Net

Opening Thursday 11 June at SET Vauxhall, A Great Big Net brings together nine artists working across drawing, printmaking, and painting, curated by Daisy Nutting.

The exhibition takes the motif of the net as a dual structure: one that can simultaneously isolate us from our world and link us to it.

Here, the net serves as a cipher for systems of power, borders, and geometric fences, as well as the networks we use to navigate them. Using the net as a compositional structure that forms both the skeleton and exoskeleton of the works on display, A Great Big Net considers the precise moment when the freedom of the grid hardens into a trap.
