Abstract

Artist Benaiah Matheson presented Town Island at the Venice Biennale (20 April-24 Nov 2024) working in partnership with Yorkshire Contemporary. Now, together with Huddersfield Art Gallery, and the University of Huddersfield, Matheson brings the exhibition to The Sovereign Design House (25 Jan–22 March 2025) at the University of Huddersfield. Using a Blended Curatorial approach the Huddersfield iteration of Town Island brings new work, interpretations, and a participatory programme to explore how the themes of co-creation, dual-identity and belonging connect to health and wellbeing, as part of the Cultures of Creative Health Programme (2024).
