This event is made possible through the support of S1 Artspace, the University of Derby’s Early-Career Researcher Development Fund, and all of the presenting artists. An Elastic Continuum’s title is used with kind permission from presenting artist Bethan Hughes whose performance-lecture asks: ‘how does this transformed and transformative material create an elastic continuum between humans and the world(s) they inhabit?’ It is with this question, Howard & Sharples selected the contributing works.
