Award-winning artist and Spider-Man enthusiast Hetain Patel and Artangel present Come As You Really Are.
From makers and modifiers to crafters and collectors, Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, alongside award-winning artist and Spider-Man enthusiast Hetain Patel and Artangel present Come As You Really Are.
Beginning as a nationwide call-out inviting members of the public to share the creative activity they dedicate their spare time to, Come As You Really Are will feature hundreds of unique hand-crafted objects and collections submitted from across the North East of England standing shoulder to shoulder with existing artworks and a new film commission by Patel.
Come As You Really Are showcases a variety of hobbies that demonstrates an individual’s freedom of expression and ingenuity, and in doing so broadens our perception of who gets to be called creative and where the impulse to create stems from.
Share your hobbies and collections with us for a chance to be included in the exhibition. The simple and short application form can be accessed below. Deadline for submissions is Monday 6 January.
