I happened upon Sumarrai Lunn quite by chance – an open door in a green wall with stairs leading down was too tempting to resist – and I’m so glad I did. Although Will Lunn was gingerly recovering from the private view the night before it didn’t stop him telling me about their space.
The current exhibition, Urban Narratives, features the work of Matthew Picton. I’ve always had a thing about maps and dictionaries: as soon as they’re finished they’re out of date so represent a particular moment and feeling. Matthew Picton’s maps reproduce places beautifully with great sensitivity of association.
London and Dublin were the first ones I noticed with connections pinging as soon as I began to look properly. I’m just sorry I can’t include more here.
The show is on till 6th April so go if you possibly can. And thanks Will for sending me your photos to supplement mine.
