Joanna Holland's exhibition, 'Out of the Blue' shares her lived experience of chronic illness. It brings together photographs, video, soundscapes and text from bodies of work created over the last three years. 

Join us for a captivating talk and tour with the artist and discover how a form of sight loss transformed her vision into a world of vivid blues. In this talk Joanna will talk about how medication caused her to see in only blue, and how this experience birthed an extraordinary body of work.
