The current members of Depot Art Studios prepare to exhibit their work together for the first time, taking on the space of the Old Bank Residency. The works playfully respond to the architecture, original features and past function of the building that was the old Co-op bank and consider the trace of the people and activities that were once here. Works featured in the show will include sculpture, drawing, abstract painting, appropriation and methods of institutional critique.
