Nothing Great Is Easy

Abstract

A solo exhibition of 13 pieces of art work. Nothing Great is Easy is an exhibition of sculpture, film, drawing and photography that proposes reconstructed narratives using the sport of swimming and in particular the collective interaction and identity of the channel swimmer. The work utilises the processes, rituals/rules, language and the apparatus of sport. “Nothing great is easy” are the words on the memorial to Captain Matthew Webb who was the first man to swim the English channel in 1875
