Regeneration
“If that isn’t the perfect counterpoint to a Lulu Lytle interior, then I don’t know what is”
Regeneration was a solo show at The Bowes Museum, a major public gallery. It was billed as about what happened when our plans were cancelled, our futures placed in doubt, and our world stopped. A show about a year which changed all of our lives. A show about doubt and loss, but also beauty, hope and the life affirming power of change.
