Frustrated by the infertile Cambridge art scene, three Cambridge School of Art graduates conjoined to form the collective ‘Motion Sickness’. In a regal city famed for the achievements of old white men, the collective aimed to forge their own playground.

For their self-titled debut exhibition, presented at STOCK Gallery in Levenshulme, Motion Sickness welcome you to the adult party, where the entry fee is £600 per calendar month plus bills, and you can cry if you want to.
