The Garden of Forking Paths draws together five artists who engage with transformation: a fiction into a history, a practical object into a melancholic romance, and domesticity into abstract. The aim is not to be reductive but to have many paths simultaneously open for exploration: to consider the movements that occur between, around and within the translation of an idea into action, back into an idea and then action again, repeating an indeterminate number of times until resolution is seemingly achieved.
