As Above, So Below

August 1st - September 4th 2016

The first thing you may notice is that there are a number of reflective surfaces - all of these serve as alternates. Masquerading as protective layers, these panels covering the ‘exhibits’ are more than likely multi-purpose planar decoders. This can be understood only through some kind of image capture or a great deal of training. The fabric of the exhibits is entirely isolated from the rest of the fabric of the building. Each appears to be fixed within a vitrine or screwed back to the wall. However, a layer of isolating phenolic composite (however thin) always prevents them from touching a single other part of the building structure.

Skelf is a virtual project space, accessible to anyone, everywhere.

Existing entirely online since 2016, we have presented work by over 120 artists and writers on our virtual platform. You can view these works in our archive. In 2019 we launched a series of eight quarterly group exhibitions, each presented by a different guest curator and accompanied by a podcast by Mark Beldan. You can listen, download or subscribe to the podcast below - or through your usual podcast supplier.


We are delighted to have been funded by Arts Council England and over the next two years will be working with artists whose work employs gesture, touch or movement and exploring how these physically-orientated practices could be translated into a virtual experience. New work will be on the site from Spring 2021.
