Folktography: A decon/reconstruction will see Elly present a series of self-portraits playing with the stereotypes associated with the visual side to English folk music. Sourced from a social media campaign, the ephemera depicted will explore both the predictable – from Crocs and corduroy – right the way through to the wildly unexpected, with Elly’s tongue firmly planted in cheek.
The exhibition will be open from 9.30am - 5.30pm daily and is free (no booking required).
