Bethanein


This is an exhibition space for contemporary art with a focus on cultural and social issues. It is located at the end of my street which is very convenient and is a beautiful looking building which was once a hospital. Outside there is a lush park which I have now seen in the sun and snow. Here are some photographs from the exhibition which was called "A perfect day to chase tornadoes (white)".
When walking into the building, we were greeted by the sound of wind. This gradually got louder and louder and then suddenly stopped. It was very intense and quite scary as it sounded so real.......







This is some of my favourite work from the gallery. I really like the use of pen and colour. Very effective yet simple. The drawings are of animals like birds and elephants. 





The next part of the museum was and exhibition called 'EXIT'. This was completely different to the other half as it was very contemporary and some were quite difficult to understand.
