Monumental Visions: Speculative Futures Through Art

Through a series of workshops over six months, participants engaged their senses to craft visions of an imagined future exploring sight and touch, smell, sound and taste. Now, their vibrant creations are on display, inviting you to explore this world of possibilities.

The Exhibition

The ‘Monumental Visions’ exhibition at Warwick Arts Centre's Theatre Bar Space brings together artwork inspired by personal experiences and sensory exploration. 

The works range from a collaborative sound piece to ceramics, 2D works and poignant written works, reflecting a range of perspectives on an imagined Inini nation. 

You can leave your own postcard reflecting your experience of nations, future and past, imagined, and real too.

The exhibition is open to visit from 29 February 2024.

About the Collaborators:
