Tuesday 8th – 13th November.

44AD Artspace, Bath

 

Introduction

PhotoBath’s first group exhibition explored the role of narrative and meaning within the photographic image. Each contributor submitted 3 images on the theme of ‘Storylines’.
A curating team was formed from members with relevant experience and one image was selected from each member for this eclectic show.
 
Contributors submitted a brief statement which provided a more meaningful and deeper understanding of their image and how it related to the theme.

The final show included some visually arresting, powerful and big statements as well as poignant and reflecting observations.

This was a significant milestone in PhotoBath’s development and was the curtain raiser for two weeks of PhotoBath exhibitions and events which helped to secure our reputation in the cultural life of Bath.
