EBC have selected 4 artists from their open call for sitting show. Emily,  Alexander, Alice and Jack. These artists responded to our call for works as follows-

'We are seeking pre-existing or proposed artworks that are for sitting on, or are to be sat on… or that incorporate seating in some way… or that are informed by seating… or are between sculpture and seating. These might be benches or chairs, but also might not take the form of a formal piece of furniture. They might be modular objects, or objects that are not usually intended to be sat on. Artworks may be informed by architectural or design practice. Submitting artists do not have to have created seating before, but must in this instance submit designs/plans.'

Selector and artist Ellen Wilkinson will be developing a text to accompany the exhibition.
