Artist Statement:
Internationally renowned artist Perry Hoberman brings his work to the UK for the first time, with the exhibition of a new commission, System Update, and an earlier work, Faraday’s Garden. Hoberman re-functionalises the everyday environment, combining high level new technology with familiar mundane materials, viewing the contemporary proliferation of consumer goods and gadgets with a mixture of affection, irreverent pranksterism and intelligent satire.
