Cost of entry
NO TICKETS REQUIRED. Whilst there is no cost of entry for the exhibition, the Torriano Meeting House is a charity and always welcomes donations to maintain this arts and community space.
Cosmoscope is a combination of words: ‘cosmos’, from ‘kosmos’, the Greek word for ‘world’, is confronted by ‘scope’, the call to investigate. It is an invitation to narrate your cosmology, map out your home, weave or photograph your place in the world.
About
Welcome to the Cosmoscope, an art exhibition running throughout March 2024 at the Torriano Meeting House.
Cosmoscope is a combination of words: ‘cosmos’, from ‘kosmos’, the Greek word for ‘world’, is confronted by ‘scope’, the call to investigate. It is an invitation to narrate your cosmology, map out your home, weave or photograph your place in the world.
Examining the delicate balance between the microcosm of our daily existence and the macrocosm of the universe, artists in this exhibition used various media to explore their own corner of the universe, whether that be a real, desired, dystopian, ephemeral, domestic or endangered world. Through their diverse perspectives and disciplines, they confront the pressing issues of our time: how should we think about, feel, or picture the boundary between self and world?
The works displayed navigate the intricate balance between the tangible and the abstract, the personal and the universal. Evoking themes and concepts such as climate change, belonging, the everyday, and the home, a journey through the Cosmoscope invites you to challenge your own perceived place in space and time.
The exhibition will be open from 11AM to 5PM every weekend throughout March 2024.
Curatorial team: Sara Atanasiu, Katie Patient, Imogen Garfinkel
