The
exhibition at Aspex Gallery featured the
six original commissions from Angel Row Gallery
alongside two new works. The collaboration with SCAN
meant the Day-to-Day Data was able to preview new works by Hywel
Davies and James Coupe, Hedley
Roberts & Rob Saunders, which were the result of a year long period
of research and development.
The exhibition had a very different look and feel to the Angel Row Gallery show.
This was a result of the entire show being contained within one room instead
of two and the added soundtrack from Hywel’s installation.

Exhibition at Aspex Gallery. It was also an opportunity for Sam

the UK for his ongoing performance IDUK. The exhibition was launched
with a speech by Aspex Gallery director Joanne Bushnell, which also celebrated
former Exhibitions & Marketing Co-ordinator, Susie Clark’s last day
at work.

Bio Mapping
Ongoing throughout the exhibition
Three of Christian Nold’s
Bio Mapping devices were available for Aspex Gallery visitors to borrow
for the duration of the Day-to-Day Data exhibition. Once kitted out
with the device, visitors went for a 40 minute walk around the local area. On
returning, gallery assistants used Christian’s software to transform the
data collected into personal Bio Maps, which were then shown on the
gallery show reel.
The Quotidian Factor
Monday 3 October, 2 – 5pm
This was a creative workshop devised by Adele
Prince and Ellie
Harrison. It was open to artists working in all media with a particular
interest in quantifying and documenting objects, events and experiences from
everyday life. Through a series of four diverse activities artists were put
through their paces and encouraged to look to the smaller things in life for
inspiration for their work. This event was organised by the Artists’
Resource Centre (ARC).
