Pum Dunbar - Artist talk at the Collins gallery

 

As part of her exhibition A Lexicon from Liminality : searching for sense between mind and matter at the Collins gallery, Glasgow-based artist Pum Dunbar will give a talk on how she uses an instinctive language of picture - making to communicate ideas and perceptions. 

The exhibition brings together paintings, collages and photograms which aim to articulate a strange visual vocabulary that has its origins in liminality, the transitional space between sense, perception and response.

Friday 21 May: 1.00-2.00pm
Collins Gallery, University of Strathclyde, 22 Richmond Street, Glasgow
