Evolution is one of the most powerful narratives of contemporary culture. It represents gradual change and progress from a simple idea to a more complex form. Creative Transit and Co. aim to approach this subject from an artist’s perspective, using various media to explore the various evolutions that occur every day, and the constant change and renovation of the Antwerp Mansion itself. The influence of the venue will become enhanced by the sensory overload of music and visual culture at the {Evolve} preview event, featuring several established and upcoming musicians and DJ’s.
Evolution is all about creation and the development that occurs from this initial point. {Evolve} is not shy to tackle this theme in a visual, engaging manner, with the nature of the exhibition allowing diverse practices to emerge. A wide range of media has enabled the artists to reflect the variety that can emerge from just one common denominator.
Creative Transit is a Manchester-based exhibiting artist collective, presenting interesting, engaging and accessible artwork. Previous exhibitions include the Free For Arts Festival, and BLANKSPACE. Members have exhibited independently worldwide from Blackpool to Brooklyn, and the directors – Lauren Taylor and Rebecca Wild – endeavor to make each group exhibition bigger and better than the last.
