Jonathan Baldock Facecrime at Bluecoat, City Centre, 13 March–21 June 2020, free entry - Visit now
Bluecoat in Liverpool presents artist Jonathan Baldock’s first solo exhibition, Facecrime.
The main installation contains a landscape of ceramic columns inspired by cuneiform-inscribed tablets (an early system of writing) dating from 2500BC. The columns are also adorned with weaving, basketry and glass drawn from different eras of labour, folklore and storytelling like an archeological find from a parallel universe.
Jonathan Baldock was Freelands Foundation artist in residence at Bluecoat in 2018.
