EWA SKOCZYNSKA
A CLEAN SWEEP
Exhibition launch:
Saturday 5 May 1.30 – 4pm
Exhibition dates:
5 May – 10 June
Skoczynska returns to the ordinary and the
banal, examining what is often overlooked and
within the world around us, living a secret life.
Sweeping is a universal activity; it may
be vigorous or gentle, depending on
where the cleaning takes place. A treasure
might be unearthed; the lost button or
foreign coin, a souvenir of a forgotten
moment. A Clean Sweep explores, both
literally and metaphorically, the ‘dust and
fluff’ which inhabits the corners of our lives.
