Art in the Minster exhibition journeys from the Grimsby Minster to Hull Minster crossing its inspiration ‘The Humber’
The exhibition Confluence – Crossings & Guiding Lights by Tracey Holland heads from Grimsby Minster across its inspiration ‘the Humber’ for its second Art in the Minster exhibition at Hull Minster.
The exhibition is a new series of film and photographic artwork titled Confluence – Crossings & Guiding Lights Exhibition is being exhibited at Grimsby Minster until Friday 5th August 2022. It will then be traveling to the Hull Minster for its next exhibition on Thursday 11th August 2022 until Saturday 3rd September.
The art installations focus on the ever-changing borderlines, the transience and continual ebb and flow of the estuarine environment, a terrain of intervention, long rivers, histories, and memories. The work aims to enhance a sense of place for people on either side of the Humber, united rather than divided by the estuary, highlighting its defining characteristics, and identifying how closely rooted and formed by the place we are, and how place and identity aid our sense of belonging. The research, development, and production have been supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and commissioned by Our Big Picture; Art in the Minster.
Tracey Holland said “It’s been wonderful to see the show come together after years of research and making, and finally installed at Grimsby Minster. In travelling on to Hull Minster, the work is able to fulfil one of its important intentions of creating links across the Humber, an area which shares so much, shaped by the same forces involved in the flow of water in this dynamic estuary, a never-ending exchange between the rivers and the sea.”
Grimsby Minster is open Tuesday to Saturday 9:30 am to 3 pm with the exhibition finishing Friday 5th August 2022.
There is a preview event for the Hull Minster exhibition on Wednesday 10th August between 6 pm and 8 pm – you are all welcome. The exhibition continues until
