Isobel Smith exhibits 'Undoings' at Glynde Place

Following the success of last year, Glynde Place welcomes back sculptor and performance artist Isobel Smith for a solo exhibition. Open on 18, 19, 25 and 26 September for free as part of Artwave and Heritage Open Days.

Advance booking is advised but a limited amount of drop in tickets will also be available on the day.

Isobel Smith is known for her striking and surprising installations and performance work. Her artistic practice crosses sculpture, performance and moving image, inhabiting a flickering state between rational and non-rational realities. Isobel Smith is an artist and experienced mentor. She has exhibited extensively and has works in both public and private collections including the Saatchi Collection. She has performed at the Tate Modern and at Performance Festivals in the UK and abroad.

Inspired by the extraordinary historic house setting, in this exhibition Isobel Smith will disrupt familiar objects and actions, and reconnect with the non-human world through her contemporary performance and sculpture.

Glynde Place is an Elizabethan country house with a long history of artistic patronage. The current owner Francis Hampden and his family are breathing new life into the estate with contemporary artwork and events. The family and his team are keen to encourage their audience to look at heritage in a new light. Contemporary artwork shown in an historic setting can help visitors connect to a place and draw links between the modern day and the past.
