Hilary Powell, artist and contributor to the Defaced! exhibition, talks about her artistic practice: making visible visceral hidden stories and structures, combining material and meaning in collective acts of salvage and experimentation. Her work plays with ideas of value - who, what and where society overlooks, and why.
Join curator Richard Kelleher for an exclusive introduction to the exhibition Defaced!, an exploration of the fascinating yet conflictive relationship between money, authority, and protest.
This event will be taking place at the Museum and will also be livestreamed.
