Under the conceptual framework of Architrope, Tom Wolseley will be showing CABIN/ET, funded by Arts Council of England, sponsored by MAERSK and supported by Hackney Council. It is a recycled shipping container in the Hackney Road Recreation Ground, next to the gallery. It will be seen from the gallery and accessed from Hackney road. It will be the central focus of a series of projects during the months of July, August and September. Other artists participating are Clare Stent, Camilla Lyon and the collective KnowlesEddyKnowles Shipping containers are the silent catalyst of globalisation. With 17 million containers in the world, there are a billion cubic meters of space, equivalent to a city the size of London, constantly on the move. Through the theme of ‘transitional spaces’, CABIN/ET aims to explore how we might locate ourselves in this new geography.
