Mariner: A painted ship upon a painted ocean
An exhibition exploring the connection between history and the present day, inspired by Coleridge’s epic poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Inspired by one of the most influential poems in the English language, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834), Mariner looks at what connects us across history and the present, from the desire to travel – to journey out and back again – to the role of intuition and imagination, the making of mistakes and the process of recovery and redemption through knowledge and understanding. Mariner showcases a series of new commissions and artworks that consider the contemporary resonance of the poem.
