Habitus
8 – 22 March 2024
Habitus is an exhibition by Mona Casey, Yvonne Hindle, Ana Rutter, and Jennifer Wright. It addresses the processes of painting, sound, patternmaking, and printmaking, used habitually to produce their individual works. The exhibition foregrounds how art calls upon the repeated use of haptic knowledge developed through habits of making.
The Hive, located in a Grade II listed former jewellery Manufactory in the Jewellery Quarter, offers arts and crafts workshops, events, and exhibitions, and a café and bakery.
498-506 Moseley Road, Balsall Heath, B12 9AH
