In partnership with John Hansard Gallery, we are pleased to be presenting A Pocket Full of Sand—a major new commission by artist Gayle Chong Kwan Gayle Chong Kwan.
Exploring colonial histories, geology and ecological deep time, this multipart exhibition unearths both historic and contemporary connections between Mauritius and the Isle of Wight. The artist connects her research of the islands with political and physical structures of power, labour, leisure, childhood and play.
